Peer Groups for Engineering Executives Driving Real Results
Boston’s trusted peer community for Engineering VPEs, CTOs, and CPTOs.
Connect. Solve. Lead.
Leadership gets harder when the pace of change accelerates. You shouldn’t have to navigate it alone.
VPE Forum is built around confidential peer groups of senior leaders who become trusted advisors to one another. Supported by a broader community of peers, members gain candid feedback, practical insights, and lasting professional relationships.
How VPE Forum Works
Confidential Peer Groups
Small groups of 6–8 Engineering Executives, CTOs, and CPTOs become trusted advisors to one another—sharing experience, challenging assumptions, and supporting one another through the decisions that matter most.
Quarterly Deep Dives
Each group meets for a full day every quarter, giving members the time to tackle their most important leadership challenges, pressure-test decisions, and learn from peers who have faced similar situations. Every discussion is candid, practical, and grounded in real experience—creating the trust that allows members to discuss the issues they can’t bring anywhere else.
A Broader Community
Beyond the peer groups, members connect with engineering leaders from early-stage startups to scaled technology companies through community events, discussions, and conversations that expand perspectives and relationships.
Real Leaders. Real Insights. Real Impact.
