Enterprise AI Adoption: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly with Nagarro Managing Director, Csaba Szabo

​Enterprise AI Adoption: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

​AI is reshaping how enterprises operate, compete, and innovate. From predictive analytics and intelligent automation to generative AI copilots, organizations are accelerating efforts to embed AI into core business processes. Yet adoption at scale brings both opportunity and complexity.

​In this candid and practical tech talk, we will explore the real-world journey of enterprise AI adoption through three lenses: the good, the bad, and the ugly. We will examine what success looks like when AI initiatives are aligned with strategy and business value. We will also address the common breakdowns that occur when governance, data foundations, or change management are treated as afterthoughts. Finally, we will confront the harder realities, including technical debt, risk exposure, ethical blind spots, and organizational resistance.

​Designed for leaders and practitioners in data and AI, this session will offer actionable insights on:

• ​Securing executive sponsorship and cross-functional alignment

• ​Establishing responsible AI governance and risk controls

• ​Moving from pilot projects to scalable production systems

• ​Measuring business impact in meaningful ways

• ​Leading AI initiatives with transparency, accountability, and inclusion

​Participants will leave with practical frameworks and honest lessons drawn from enterprise experience, along with a clearer view of how to accelerate AI adoption responsibly and sustainably.
