On April 29, we held another edition of our traditional iT.eam Dinner, an event we host annually in Belo Horizonte to bring together leaders, clients, and partners around strategic conversations about technology, security, and decision-making.
Every year, we seek to evolve the event format to keep up with the challenges organizations are facing. In 2026, this evolution meant bringing a new perspective into the conversation.
In addition to discussions on cybersecurity, AI, and risk management, the event also created space to talk about high performance under pressure, connecting the corporate environment to elite sports.
The theme of the evening captured this proposal well: decisions that define the outcome. Keep reading to learn more about the event!

iT.eam Dinner brings together leaders who deal, on a daily basis, with decisions that directly impact operations, security, and business continuity.
Today, the challenge is no longer just about having access to information, as many companies already have an excess of data, alerts, tools, and reports.
The critical point lies elsewhere: understanding what needs to be prioritized, where to act first, and how to make consistent decisions under pressure.
This was one of the main threads throughout the evening. Across conversations about strategy, operations, technology, and leadership, it became clear that decision-making requires more than speed. It requires context, preparation, and clarity.

During the event, Rubens Palhoni, from Darktrace, brought an important perspective on the role of artificial intelligence in corporate cybersecurity.
As he highlighted in a <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7461044449595293696/?actorCompanyId=9371307">short interview</a>, detection is an essential foundation. But in companies, one of the major challenges is understanding what truly needs to be prioritized.

As digital environments become more complex, the volume of alerts, data, and signals continues to grow. In this context, detecting is not enough. It is necessary to interpret, contextualize, and transform this information into actionable decisions.
The conversation also addressed the impact of AI on decision-making and the challenges of governing the massive use of technology within organizations.

That is why, more than a discussion about tools, the central point was the need to structure security with business vision, operational maturity, and response capability.

For the first time, iT.eam Dinner welcomed Fabíola Molina, Olympic athlete and entrepreneur.
Her presence brought a different connection to the event: the relationship between elite sports, pressure, preparation, and performance.
In sports, decisions are made in seconds. In cybersecurity, often the same is true.
Throughout the conversation, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7459687051869810688/">Fabíola shared reflections</a> on discipline, consistency, courage, direction, and a mindset of continuous evolution. These are themes that are part of an athlete’s routine, but also part of the reality of leaders who need to make decisions in critical scenarios.

The main connection lies in preparation. In high-pressure environments, the outcome does not depend only on the moment of decision, but on everything that was built before it.
This perspective directly connects with the corporate context. Better-prepared companies tend to respond more effectively, prioritize with greater clarity, and act more consistently when challenges arise.

In addition to the content presented, iT.eam Dinner also exists to create a qualified environment for exchange between companies facing similar challenges.
Throughout the evening, clients, partners, and executives were able to share experiences, perspectives, and lessons learned about security, technology, business, and leadership.
As highlighted by participants at the event, this type of gathering allows companies not only to discuss trends, but also to learn about challenges that other organizations have already faced, overcome, or are still structuring.
This exchange is an essential part of the value of iT.eam Dinner.

iT.eam Dinner 2026 reinforced an important message: decisions under pressure do not happen only in technology.
They are present in management, leadership, security, operations, and in the way companies prepare to respond to increasingly complex scenarios.
Cybersecurity continues to evolve, artificial intelligence is already influencing new decision-making dynamics, and corporate environments demand increasing levels of preparation, integration, and maturity.
Now, the differentiator for those who were present at the event lies in the ability to connect information, experience, and action.
We thank everyone who participated in iT.eam Dinner 2026 and contributed to another edition marked by relevant conversations and qualified exchanges.
We continue to believe that security, technology, and performance are built with people, context, and well-directed decisions.
So, until the next edition!
