CIO Leadership Dinner Roundtable: Simplifying Networking Complexity for Multi-Cloud Environments
CXO San Francisco Roundtable Dinner by Tata Communications

Thursday, August 20, 2026 | 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM Pacific Time
San Francisco, California, USA
Overview
The discussion will focus on simplifying network architecture, adopting cloud-first connectivity models, and building infrastructure that supports flexibility, performance, and control - without added complexity.
Enterprise networks were built for a world where traffic stayed inside the corporate LAN. That world no longer exists. As multi-cloud adoption accelerates, organizations are operating across cloud platforms, remote users, and distributed environments - creating new levels of complexity. At the same time, many teams lack the expertise to manage this shift effectively. The result is a growing gap between legacy network design and modern business needs. Infrastructure struggles to keep up, leading to fragmented connectivity, limited visibility, and constraints on performance and scale.
In this roundtable hosted by Tata Communications, IT leaders will explore how to close that gap.
Key Takeaways:
- The limitations of legacy network architectures in multi-cloud environments
- How networking impacts the success of your cloud strategy
- Practical approaches to simplifying and modernizing infrastructure
- Where organizations are in their multi-cloud networking journey today
- What IT leaders expect from connectivity providers moving forward
