From quick wins to real value: Unlocking ROI from AI.

Breakfast session: explore the wins and pitfalls of AI in environments where failure has real consequences and accountability matters.
About this Event

The majority of tech leaders and their teams are using AI, but few are probably showing an ROI, even fewer are maximising its value when building and managing critical services, instead focussing on low-risk operational process quick wins.

As a result, boards are getting impatient, wanting to see provable efficiency gains. They want better outcomes for customers, faster progress, more productive high value teams, all whilst ensuring security and compliance.

This session explores the wins and pitfalls of AI adoption in environments where the cost of failure is high and accountability is real. You’ll learn:

• How AI genuinely drives efficiency and productivity across the product delivery lifecycle – from discovery to design, through to build, testing, deployment and beyond.

• Where AI creates more work than it solves

• How to take data governance and security seriously

• How to introduce AI without overwhelming your teams.

• How AI isn’t about replacing engineers but reinvigorating teams and unlocking their potential for problem solving.

We will also have a panel of experts who will share their experiences of AI adoption and answer the challenges submitted by you.

Speakers:

• Steven Burton, Technology & Strategy Director at CDS

• Jamie Lord, Solution Architect at CDS
• Matthew Evans, COO and Director of Markets Program at TechUK

Reasons to attend:

• Get a clear, practical view of where AI actually drives value in critical-service environments

• Share your experiences with your peers

• Leave with answers to your niggling AI adoption problems and concerns

• Leave with concrete, actionable takeaways that will drive value with AI without exposing critical services to risk
