CIO magazine
CIO was founded in 1987 in Framingham, Mass., to serve executives and technology decision makers in information technology field and the burgeoning role of Chief Information Officer. The publication, created as part of Boston-based International Data Group's enterprise publications business, was built to deliver CIO-focused news, features and commentary on emerging technologies and products, industry trends and research, innovation in the tech industry, and legal and regulatory implications of technology.
The CIO portfolio currently includes CIO Magazine and CIO.com, as well as CIO Executive Programs, CIO Strategic Marketing Services, CIO Forum on LinkedIn, CIO Executive Council and CIO primary research. Serving CIOs and other IT leaders, CIO.com, CIO magazine, CIO Executive Programs, CIO Custom Solutions Group and the CIO Executive Council are produced by IDG Enterprise, a business unit of IDG.
CIO Magazine
The monthly magazine started it all in 1987, when the CIO title itself was new and relatively unknown in corporate America. Today, CIO's readers oversee IT strategy and direction as well as more tactical technology operations at Fortune 1000 companies. Readers are equally fluent in technology and business issues, and they work closely with other company leaders in various business functions. The magazine has a qualified circulation of 140,000 readers, most of whom are CIOs and senior IT leaders.
CIO.com
In 1996, the Website was launched as a companion to the magazine and over the last 19 years has grown into a destination site for technology leaders, managers and tech enthusiasts of all levels looking to find engaging articles, news and reviews focused on the challenges facing today's IT leaders.
Awards
CIO has received industry recognition and numerous awards for both its print and online journalism. With more than 20 years of experience and more than 170 awards, CIO magazine and CIO.com remain media leaders within the tech industry.
