Businesses today face a tough balance: innovate at speed, without losing control of cost, risk, or continuity. At SoftwareOne Summit on 23 October, we’ll show you how to do both.
For IT leaders today, everything is urgent, and nothing is simple.
Boardroom expectations for AI are rising as fast as models are advancing, and the pressure is on to turn promise into tangible value. Every step forward in capability makes it clearer how AI-powered organizations will outcompete rivals on cost, service and customer experience. The potential rewards for being ambitious, thinking big and embracing automation and insights with AI are therefore great.
However, meeting these expectations is not easy. On top of delivering the solutions themselves, IT leaders need to urgently address dependencies like ageing infrastructure and fragmented data. Simultaneously, they must take measures to tackle growing operational, security and compliance risks, and help lines of business adapt to change. They need to maintain a workplace environment that is attractive for talent, with the right culture, working practices and tools. And, on top of all this, continue to run day-to-day IT operations.
It’s everything, everywhere, all at once – there’s little wonder that according to one extreme estimate, 95% of AI projects are now stalling.
