#NCTECHGolf24

Business and technology leaders from across the state gather at Pinehurst for a golf tourney that includes breakfast, lunch and prizes presented at the Awards Luncheon. Regardless of your golf skills, it is a great opportunity to have some productive time away from the office and build critical relationships with tech leaders from across the state.

The popular CIO Foursome sponsorship allows sponsors to choose from committed CIOs to participate in their golf foursome for the day. Golfers are capped at 128, but there are other opportunities to participate.
