While artificial intelligence is currently one of the most discussed topics across industries, many organisations are still struggling to translate early experiments and proof-of-concepts into measurable business impact. Although technologies such as large language models and agentic AI attract significant attention, the question remains sometimes where and how AI can truly create sustainable value.
At our AI Breakfast – AI Impact Across Industries, we will focus on real-world success stories where AI is already creating measurable business value. Drawing on examples across industries, we will discuss how organisations move beyond experimentation and successfully implement AI-driven solutions in practice. In particular, we will discuss key success factors for turning AI initiatives into impactful business applications and explore where AI can realistically unlock the greatest value today.
