In San Antonio, where several hundred senior IT leaders from midmarket companies gathered with tech suppliers and industry experts, the vibe was decidedly upbeat.
The Midsize Enterprise Summit (MES) is the Midmarket IT executive event of the year.
It offers IT decision makers exclusive access to more than 80+ top vendors, seasoned Gartner analysts and an elite group of peers.

IT purchases by midmarket organizations are expected to grow nearly 4 percent this year, driven by a demand for software and IT services. That disclosure was made by Gartner research analyst Mike Cisek based on his analysis of a wide-ranging study of IT leaders who attended the 2016 Midsize Enterprise Summits supplemented with additional research he conducted.
When it comes to IT security, the size of a company does not matter to hackers. Cybersecurity attacks have happened to high profile corporations and government entities just as they have happened to midsize companies. Even IT security firms are not immune to attacks having been hacked in recent years.
In talking about how market changes will transform the CIO by 2030, Gartner Vice President of Research Heather Colella said, “Everything is about to change and everything IT does today will be transformed.”
The biggest trends in midmarket IT are captured at each Midsize Enterprise Summit through an extensive CIO survey. Attendees at MES Spring and Fall answer a comprehensive survey about their challenges and organizational opportunities when it comes to tech and the CIO’s role.
During a recent briefing with IT vendors and MES Board members, Gartner analyst Mike Cisek shed some light on the five trends reshaping the midmarket and the change in buying behaviors among IT leaders at midmarket companies.
