AI is moving fast — and so is the pressure to figure out where it actually fits in your organization. Whether you’re actively exploring use cases or just trying to separate real progress from all the noise, the hardest part is knowing where to start. What’s working today? And how are others making it work inside complex, real-world environments? Let’s explore recent AI pilots and the questions we’ve found most helpful for spotting good opportunities early on.

Cloud was supposed to make everything easier — and in many ways, it does. But as your environment grows into mission-critical infrastructure, it can also start to feel like the wild wild west.

Join us for a discussion on the ROI of saying no and how to make a case not to build.
