The Summer Replay Series
Catch up. Connect. Lead forward.
Some conversations are too important to leave behind. This summer, the Executive Women’s Forum brings the most powerful moments from our 2025 Annual Conference directly to you — no travel required, no packed schedule, just an hour to reconnect with ideas that matter.
The Summer Replay Series is a three-part virtual watch party featuring replay screenings of this year’s most talked-about keynotes, followed by open breakout rooms designed for the kind of candid, unhurried conversation that makes the EWF community so special. Each session is designed to be a moment to slow down, absorb, and connect — because transforming tomorrow starts with making space to think today.
This event will be certified for 1.0 CPE credit.
Reading the Digital Tea Leaves: Courage in a Hyper-Speed Cyber Age
Nicole Perlroth – Keynote Speaker, Cybersecurity Author, Investor & Advisor, Silver Buckshot Ventures
A decade covering the most consequential cyberattacks—Stuxnet, Shamoon, NotPetya, SolarWinds—made one thing clear: digital intrusions are the opening act of geopolitical conflict. They foreshadow election interference, military invasions, and the brittleness of our global software supply chain.
Now, as we exit the AI honeymoon and enter a new era of agents and Artificial General Intelligence, the pace of innovation is outstripping Moore’s Law—and the risks are exponentially escalating. We’re staring down ambient, automated misinformation; automated ransomware, model poisoning that could compromise entire AI ecosystems before we realize what’s been corrupted—on a scale that makes SolarWinds look like a warning shot.
And yet—across culture, politics, and business—there is silence. We are told to diminish our voice out of fear of offending the powers that be. But as technologists–nay humans– we have never faced a greater inflection point in our lifetimes. If we don’t speak out and use our voices now, we may not get another chance.
The Summer Replay Series is part of EWF’s ongoing commitment to its 2026 conference theme, Transforming Tomorrow: Delivering Real Outcomes in Technology and Leadership — because the gap between vision and execution closes one conversation at a time.
