Agentic AI for accelerating modernization

Old systems quietly hold back most of what is on your roadmap, and replacing them is slow and costly. This session asks whether AI that works on its own can speed up that journey. Come if old systems are what stand between you and your next step.

You leave with: Insufficient data: the source gives only the title.

Fixing data before buying more AI

Fixing data before buying more AI

The AI looks impressive. The results do not. The model is often not the problem. The data underneath is: how good it is, whether people trust it and whether someone is responsible for it. This session argues that fixing that foundation should come before the next purchase. This is for you if another AI purchase is on your list and you are not sure your data can carry it.

You leave with: A sharper view on data quality, trust and responsibility, and why they come before more AI spending.

How we embedded AI into every process

Ten pilots, plenty of applause, and the monthly numbers look the same as last year. That is not a lack of ambition, it is what happens when AI stays a side project. This session gives a real-world example of AI built into daily work, so it changes how things get done. This one is for you if your pilots keep impressing people without moving anything.

You leave with: A real-world view of how to spread AI across business processes and the way the organization works.

The €100M AI question

Picture the board meeting. Someone asks what the last AI investment returned, and the room goes quiet. Most AI budgets are approved on enthusiasm and judged later on numbers nobody agreed in advance. This session is about deciding up front what “”value”” means, who owns it and how you show it. Worth your time if your next AI request will face harder questions than your last.

You leave with: A clearer way to govern AI spending and show measurable business value.

The autonomous enterprise

Support is one thing. Doing the work is another. When AI runs whole workflows on its own, how the organization is run, who does what and how your systems fit together all change. This session explores how to design for that future. Come if you want to see what the next generation of digital organizations looks like.

You leave with: A view on designing the organization, workforce and systems for AI that acts on its own.

The last data strategy you’ll ever need

The last data strategy you’ll ever need

When was your data strategy last rewritten, and did it feel finished afterwards? Data only pays off when someone owns it, the rules are clear and it connects to a business result. This session shows what a strategy that lasts looks like, so you can stop starting over. Come if “who owns this data?” still gets a long silence in your organization.

You leave with: A clear view on ownership, rules and business value for data, as a base for AI.

Who’s managing your AI employees?

An AI system approves something, sends something or changes something on its own. Then it goes wrong. Who answers for it? Most organizations do not have a clear answer yet. This session covers accountability at executive level, rules and how an organization is run when AI acts on its own. Come if AI is arriving in your organization faster than the rules for it.

You leave with: A clearer view on accountability and clear rules for AI that acts on its own.

Your next employee won’t be human

Your next employee won’t be human

Look at your org chart. Where would you put a colleague that never sleeps and acts on its own? AI is moving from tool to teammate: it starts tasks and makes choices next to your people. That changes how you design roles, teams and rules. Come if you suspect your org chart will soon need a new kind of box.

You leave with: A view on redesigning work, roles and rules for AI that acts on its own.

Competing as a network

Competing as a network

Your toughest competitor may not be a single company. It may be a group of partners that work together better than you do. Winning increasingly depends on how well you collaborate, not only on what you own. This session looks at how such networks are run and what advantage they create. Come if your strategy still assumes you win alone.

You leave with: A view on how networks of partners create advantage, and how to work with them.

Speaker(s):
Hosted by partner:

Complexity is eating your company

Approvals, releases, decisions: everything takes a little longer than it used to. Nobody chose that. It built up through old systems, extra tools and extra layers. This session treats simplification as a way to get faster. Come if your organization has the people but not the speed.

You leave with: A view on simplifying old systems and organizational layers in order to speed up.

Speaker(s):
Hosted by partner:

Complexity is eating your company (cost angle)

There is no line in your budget called “”complexity””, yet you pay for it every day: slower delivery, higher maintenance, missed chances. This session aims to make that cost visible. It shows how simpler systems and less old technology baggage help you move faster and scale. Come if you need numbers to justify simplifying.

You leave with: A way to think about the cost of complexity and how to reduce it.

From AI Ambition to AI at Scale: Building a Future-Fit Technology Foundation

From AI Ambition to AI at Scale: Building a Future-Fit Technology Foundation

One team gets a great result with a new idea, and then nothing spreads. Innovation is easy in one team and hard across ten. Scaling needs shared standards and common platforms that people actually use. This session looks at the technology base that lets good ideas travel across the whole organization. Come if innovation in your company tends to stay where it started.

You leave with: Insight into the standards and company-wide platforms that help innovation scale.

The ecosystem advantage

The ecosystem advantage

A good product can be copied. A network of partners that trust each other, with systems that work well together, is much harder to copy. This session explores how trust and connected systems turn partnerships into lasting value. Come if you are weighing build, buy or partner and want a sharper way to choose.

You leave with: Insight into how trust and working together create lasting value from partnerships.

Speaker(s):

The missing middle

The missing middle

Leadership sets the direction and teams deliver at full speed, yet somehow the two do not meet. The missing piece is the middle layer: clear rules and responsibilities, how your systems fit together, and which projects get priority. This session is about building that layer so the right things get built. Come if your teams are busy but you cannot say how much of it serves the strategy.

You leave with: Ideas for lining up responsibilities, system design and project priorities with your strategy.

Hosted by partner:

The platform paradox

The platform paradox

Standardize too much and teams slow down. Standardize too little and you end up with a zoo of tools. Most leaders know this tension, few have a rule for it. This session is a decision conversation about where the line should sit and who draws it. Come if your platform debates keep ending in “”it depends””.

You leave with: A clearer way to decide where to standardize and where to leave room to innovate.

Beyond cybersecurity

Beyond cybersecurity

Ask your team one question: if something got through tonight, how long until we are fully running again? Security keeps attackers out. Resilience keeps the business going when one gets through. This session covers keeping operations running, clear responsibility and recovery. Come if you are well protected but the honest answer to that question is “”we’re not sure””.

You leave with: A view on keeping the business running and recovering, beyond security tools.

Digital sovereignty & AI sovereignty

Who could cut off your cloud, your AI or your access to data, and who can look inside? Your digital future depends on providers, laws and politics you do not control. This session balances innovation against compliance, trust and geopolitical risk, covering sovereign cloud and trusted AI. Come if you cannot yet answer that opening question with confidence.

You leave with: A view on staying in control of your data, AI and cloud while still innovating.

The day encryption stopped working

Imagine someone copies your encrypted data today. They cannot read it yet. One day, with a quantum computer, they can. This session explains the business risk in plain language and what a practical roadmap to stronger, new encryption looks like. Come if you cannot yet say where your organization depends on today’s encryption.

You leave with: A plain-language view of the business risk of quantum computing and a practical roadmap to new encryption.

When quantum becomes your competitor

Quantum feels far away, so it is easy to put off. But preparing is a long road, and waiting is also a choice. This session gives executives a roadmap: what to do today for long-term security and a digital infrastructure that stays fit for the future. Come if you want a clear first step instead of another trend report.

You leave with: An executive roadmap for quantum readiness, including a first step.

Your biggest vulnerability isn’t the one with the highest score

Your team has thousands of open security weaknesses and time to fix only some. The usual move is to start with the highest score, but the highest score is not always the highest business risk. This session shows a real enterprise case that compares score-based and risk-based fixing: what changed, what was fixed first and what business risk went down. Come if you cannot yet prove you are fixing the right things.

You leave with: The ability to challenge how you prioritize security weaknesses, and to see whether you fix the most dangerous issues or only the highest-scoring ones.

AI won’t replace you. Adaptability will.

AI won’t replace you. Adaptability will.

Your people are asking a quiet question: what does this mean for my job? How you answer decides whether they work with AI or against it. This session puts people first, with new skills, culture and the ability to adapt. Come if your AI rollout depends on employees who are still unsure.

You leave with: A people-first view on reskilling, culture and adaptability for AI.

Building an organization that learns faster

Building an organization that learns faster

Think of a skill your team spent years building. How long until it matters less? Skills lose value faster than most training plans can follow, and courses alone do not close the gap. What helps is an organization where learning is a daily habit. Come if your skills gap is growing faster than your training plan.

You leave with: Ideas on continuous learning and keeping your workforce adaptable.

Speaker(s):
Hosted by partner:

The adaptive enterprise

You know the cycle: a big program, big disruption, partial results. Then, a few years later, again. This session explores a different model, where learning and building new capabilities are part of normal work instead of a project. It covers organizational design, leadership and how the company is run. Come if you want change to stop being an event.

You leave with: A view on moving from one-off transformation to continuous learning and adaptation.

The executive operating system

When a human and an AI both have a say in a decision, who has the last word? The old ways of leading, escalating and approving start to creak. This session redefines executive leadership, rules and decision-making in a company where AI is involved. Come if you want to shape those rules instead of inheriting them.

You leave with: A view on how leadership, rules and decision-making change when AI is part of the decision.

Speaker(s):
Hosted by partner:

The last CEO who made every decision

Count the decisions you made last week. Now ask how many truly needed you. Leaders make too many decisions with too little time, and AI can now support those choices and sometimes shape them. That raises a fair question: what should stay with humans? Come if you would rather lead this shift than be surprised by it.

You leave with: A view on how AI can support leadership and decision-making.

Transformation is dead

“Transformation is dead.” The claim is meant to provoke, and it starts from something you may recognise: one big change program after another leaves people tired. One-time change assumes the world holds still afterwards, and it does not. This session makes the case for continuous change as the normal state. Come if “”change fatigue”” already appears in your management meetings.

You leave with: A fresh way to think about continuous evolution instead of one-off change programs.

Turning ambition into outcomes

Turning ambition into outcomes

Often the strategy is fine. The break happens in the step between the plan and what people actually do on Monday morning. This session looks at that step and how to turn strategy into results you can measure. If you have ever had to explain why a well-funded program is not delivering, you will recognise the problem.

You leave with: A practical view on turning strategy into measurable execution.
