Hear from Forrester and leading AI experts on how IT leaders can scale AI securely, responsibly, and measurably across the digital workplace.

AI has moved from pilot to enterprise mandate, but most organizations are still trying to scale on a shaky foundation.

Recent Forrester research commissioned by Simpplr identified the blockers: proving ROI with the right KPIs, enforcing security and access controls, and working through fragmented data environments that make AI results unreliable.

Across the summit, experts from Forrester, Responsible AI Institute, EY, AWS, Simpplr, and IT leaders in the field shared practical ways to move from AI experimentation to governed execution.
