MD Tech Leader Talks 26: From AI ambition to action – delivering measurable ROI
As AI adoption gathers pace, organisations are under growing pressure to invest and demonstrate where the technology can deliver meaningful business value.

Real-world examples of organisations putting AI into practice
How leaders are building a compelling business case and giving boards confidence to invest
The data, engineering and technical foundations needed to deliver AI effectively
Lessons from moving proofs of concept into production
How organisations are measuring improvements in productivity, efficiency, quality and delivery speed
The engineering, operational and organisational costs that can be overlooked

How to develop scalable AI capabilities that deliver sustained value
There will also be an opportunity to put your questions to the panel and connect with fellow technology leaders over lunch.
