AI Strategy Trends from Real Organisations in 15 Countries
Host: Andrew Welch
Info: Neither a market forecast nor a vendor's view of the world. This is what has actually been observed leading this work with organisations across more than fifteen countries and six sectors: where the money is going, where it is being wasted, which capabilities reliably separate the organisations pulling ahead, and how the picture differs by region and by sector. It draws on maturity assessments run against five pillars and twenty-five dimensions, so the patterns are measured rather than anecdotal.
Expect some uncomfortable findings, among them the averaged-score trap, where visible strength in a few dimensions conceals weakness in the ones carrying real weight. And expect the aggregate answer, which is that nearly every organisation in the world still sits somewhere between reactive and proactive, whatever its press releases say.
What attendees leave with: a candid benchmark against peer organisations, and a sharper sense of which current investments are load-bearing.

Closing Keynote
Host: Dona Sarkar
Info: Microsoft's Director of Enterprise AI Advocacy closes the day on what she sees inside organisations: the ones that make the leap, the ones that stall, and the difference between them, which is rarely what leadership believes it is.
The second half is ask and answer. Put your real problem to the room, whatever the day has surfaced or failed to resolve. Often the answer turns out to be someone three seats away who solved it eighteen months ago, and those introductions are made deliberately and followed up after the event rather than left to the coffee queue. It is the part of the day the Forum takes most seriously. Published knowledge is durable, but a peer who will take your call next year is worth more.
What attendees leave with: a straight answer from someone who sees hundreds of these programmes, at least one introduction worth having, and a next step that fits their organisation.
Working Sessions
🕑: 10:40 AM - 01:05 PM
Working Session A - Getting and Keeping Agents in Production (at Scale)
Host: Chris Huntingford
Info: Building an agent is no longer the hard part. Keeping a population of them running inside a real organisation is. This session takes on the machinery that decides whether agents survive contact with the organisation's real work, and it stays deliberately platform-neutral: identity and permissions, ownership and who gets called at night, cost and consumption, observability, versioning and change control, retirement, and the problem of the agents nobody registered.
It is work rather than talk. Attendees put their own blockers on the table at the start, the group sorts them into the patterns that keep recurring, and the remainder of the time is spent building shared answers to the ones most of the room holds in common. The conversation stays at the level where it transfers, so that a bank or a public sector agency can use a version of the same answer, with each participant's specifics as the worked examples.
🕑: 12:50 PM - 01:50 PM
Lunch and Networking
🕑: 01:35 PM - 04:00 PM
Working Session B - Human Context Protocol and the AI Workforce of the Future
Host: Ana Welch
Info: Every organisation runs on context its people hold implicitly. Who decides what. What gets escalated, to whom, and how fast. What good work looks like. What is never done regardless of who asks. Almost none of it is written down, and agents inherit none of it. The Human Context Protocol is an open line of work on making that context explicit enough that mixed teams of people and agents can operate against it: leadership capabilities, decision rights, and the operating norms of teams whose members are not all human.
This is a drafting session. What is a role when part of it is performed by an agent? Where does accountability sit when the work was assembled by software and approved by a person? What must digital fluency mean now? What do regulators already expect an organisation to demonstrate about the competence of its people? The work stays at the level of the protocol rather than any one sector, with participants' own situations as the test cases.
