About this Event

Aligning AI Strategy With Workforce Infrastructure for Measurable Value at Scale

The New Enterprise AI Reality:

• AI investment focuses on cloud and data centres, while systems and endpoints lag.

• AI adoption among employees is accelerating, while device capabilities continue to advance to better unlock their full value.

• Scaling AI requires balancing productivity, security, governance and modernised infrastructure.

The challenge is no longer adopting AI, but building secure, AI-ready infrastructure that delivers scalable productivity, efficiency and business value.

“The organisations that gain the greatest value from AI will be the ones that prepare their workforce infrastructure for it first.”

-OpenGov Asia

AI adoption in the Philippines is moving from experimentation towards operational performance. However, most strategies still prioritise data centres over workforce infrastructure, creating a widening execution gap at the edge.

AI with edge capabilities boost productivity and automation at the endpoint. As adoption grows, organisations must balance innovation with security, making edge AI essential.

The next phase of AI in the Philippines will be won by organisations that modernise workforce endpoints to deliver measurable productivity gains while strengthening security and governance at the device edge.

How Leading Organisations Are Responding:

• Productivity at the Endpoint: Enable AI-powered workflows through AI-ready devices and on-device acceleration.
• Security, Governance and Privacy: Apply policy, control and data protection closer to where AI is used via edge AI capabilities.
• Hybrid Infrastructure Readiness: Extend AI from cloud and data centres to endpoints across cloud, on-premises and edge environments.

Without an AI-ready infrastructure, organisations risk scaling AI faster than they can secure or govern it, increasing inefficiency and exposure. The next phase of AI will depend on secure, intelligent workforce environments at scale.

Key Outcomes for Enterprise AI Leaders:

• REFRAME AI from experimentation to measurable productivity and business impact
• BALANCE innovation with security, governance and operational control
• DEFINE the role of AI PCs and edge AI in enterprise infrastructure
• ENABLE scalable, secure, AI-ready workforce infrastructure
• OPERATIONALISE AI across endpoints, workflows and environments to prove ROI
