Captioning for the deaf and hard of hearing is provided by Ai-Media for all Inside Higher Ed webcasts. Transcripts available upon request.

This data-rich webcast will explore insights from the Inside Higher Ed/Hanover Research 2025 Survey of Campus Chief Technology/Information Officers, focusing on how institutions are handling AI integration, addressing cybersecurity vulnerabilities and sustainability, and otherwise balancing innovation with limited resources.

Whether you're concerned about legacy infrastructure hampering innovation (60 percent of CTOs are); looking to benchmark your AI governance approach against peer institutions (just 11 percent of CTOs report that their college has a comprehensive AI strategy); or help close the digital divide (roughly half of institutions represented in the survey still aren’t providing students access to generative AI tools), the discussion will provide actionable insights applicable to a variety of institution types.

Expert panelists will also share their perspectives on the evolving role of technology and tech leadership in higher education—and help identify practical solutions to shared challenges.
