CIO Panel

During the CIO Agenda panel session, RingCentral CISO Heather Hinton (second from left, above) offered advice to partners looking for her business. Hinton said she looks for partners “selling to solve the problem, not selling what was on the truck.”

Meantime, in the early days of the pandemic, most of the existing partners serving Seminole Hard Rock services were proactive and able to address its needs. That’s according to CISO Mike Novak (second from right, above), also speaking during the CIO panel session. But he said nearly one-third were not up for the task.

“We needed to innovate no matter what,” Novak said.
