Why Gartner CSO Conference matters for sales teams
The audience is as close to a sales-tech vendor’s ideal buyer as it gets: CSOs, VPs of Sales and the leaders who run sales operations and enablement. They attend to benchmark with peers and find ways to improve team performance.
The event is small, so every attendee matters. A list of attending companies and roles helps vendors request the right meetings and avoid relying on chance encounters in a compact exhibit area.
Should you go to Gartner CSO Conference?
Best for: B2B teams with a clear ideal customer profile in B2B sales, a defined meeting goal and someone ready to run outreach four to six weeks before the event.
Less ideal for: companies hoping to generate leads purely from booth traffic. At Gartner CSO Conference, the strongest results come from meetings booked in advance, not from walk-ups.

Prices change between editions and by registration date, so treat these as a guide and check gartner.com/en/conferences before you buy.
Does Gartner CSO Conference have an app?
Yes. Attendees use the Gartner Conference Navigator app to plan sessions and book time with analysts.
If you plan to prospect through the event app, expect friction: limited search filters, caps on messages and connection requests, and no way to get the data into your CRM. It helps on the day, but it is not a target list.
Is Gartner CSO Conference worth it?
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Exact sales-leader audience | Expensive |
| Analyst access | Small exhibitor area |
| Small and senior |
How to prospect at Gartner CSO Conference
| When | What to do |
|---|---|
| Early planning | Pull the attendee, exhibitor and speaker lists and score them against your ideal customer profile. |
| Pre-show outreach | Contact your top tier personally and your second tier with a short sequence. Aim to book meetings, not booth visits. |
| On site | Work from a printed or mobile list of priority accounts and use breaks and evening events for warm introductions. |
| Post-show | Follow up fast, share what you promised, and keep the list for next year’s edition. |
With standard registration at $4,350, attendees are senior and selective. Short, peer-style conversations about specific challenges work better than full product demos.
Pre-booked meetings beat booth traffic. If you want a clean, segmented Gartner CSO Conference list to work from, reach out on Prospector and tell me who you want to meet.
