The 2027 programme
Six conversations enterprise AI leaders will have in 2027
Each theme runs through keynotes, panels, CxO debates and closed-door round tables in every city. Each grows out of what the New York room argued about in 2025 and 2026.
02
The ROI reckoning
AI is costing more every year. Which programmes return money the CFO recognises, and how is that measured at the board?
In Dallas: The new corporate capital
03
Governance is a board issue
From shadow AI to accountable AI: regulation, data sovereignty and responsible AI as operating discipline.
In Dallas: The new corporate capital
04
Data foundations for AI
Observability, data quality and the platform decisions that decide whether AI reaches production at all.
In Dallas: The new corporate capital
05
The AI-native operating model
Where the CDO, CIO and Chief AI Officer sit, how teams are rewired, and what the board will bank on.
In Dallas: The new corporate capital
06
Build, buy or partner
In-house platforms against vendor solutions, and how to de-risk the transformation either way.
