Indiana CIO Network

The Indiana CIO Network is a TechPoint initiative focused on convening the senior most technology leaders at Indiana organizations. Drawing operational IT leaders from around the state and across all sectors, the Network is a community of Chief Information Officers who share knowledge, discuss challenges, exchange ideas, and explore opportunities related to their roles. Meetings and events are no-sales zones. Originally dubbed the Indy CIO Network, TechPoint began supporting and hosting this forum in late 2022 with a statewide focus as the “Indiana CIO Network.” Matt Belanger, Vice President & Chief Information Officer at Republic Airways, serves as President, and Heather Darring, CIO of Kappa Alpha Theta, is Vice President. The Indiana CIO Network also launched an Advisory Council in October 2024 comprised of a diverse group of tech executives helping to guide the structure and voice of the community to build the network. Members attend monthly events and may also subscribe to a monthly newsletter with details about upcoming events and curated content for the discerning senior tech leader. Additionally, the group’s leadership is available to help moderate an occasional shared distribution channel for news about tech leader job openings and placements, as well as requests for assistance and workplace solution crowdsourcing.
