Recorded live at PoweredUp Tech Fest, this episode of The (Un)Buttoned Up Podcast features Matt Sickles, a seasoned technology and cybersecurity executive at CDW, with more than three decades of experience helping organizations build and protect trust in an increasingly digital world.

Matt shares with us about his Doc Martin collection, in addition to sharing his perspective on where AI and emerging technologies are headed, why trust has become one of the most valuable assets a business can have, and how leaders can embrace innovation without compromising security. Security should not be an afterthought, it should be a model of expense that protects the revenue input.

From the rapid evolution of AI to the growing importance of resilience, governance, and strategic leadership, this conversation explores how organizations can prepare for what's next while staying focused on the people they serve. Whether you're a business leader, technology professional, or simply curious about the future of AI, Matt offers practical insights that cut through the hype and focus on what truly matters.
