Complex supply chains, legacy infrastructure, and relentless pressure to modernize: manufacturing, automotive, and energy executives are navigating all of it at once.
Over lunch, a panel of industry leaders will share how they're connecting the plant floor to the customer, enabling their teams with AI, and building transformation that actually sticks beyond the initial rollout.
You'll learn about:
- How to scale AI: Only 2% of manufacturers run AI fully autonomously. Learn how executives are scoping agents to defined tasks to manage risk, prevent costly errors, and keep AI spend predictable.
- Breaking the "tech-first" trap: 41% of manufacturers bought an AI platform before defining a use case, making them 3x more likely to stall. Hear how organizations have been starting with the problem, not the platform.
- Building AI governance that actually holds: Only 39% of manufacturers have formal AI policies in place. Our panelists will cover how they've built governance as an ongoing discipline with clear ownership, regular output checks, and guardrails that scale as AI takes on higher-stakes work.
