In an era in which every boardroom is asking “how do we make AI work for us?”

This one-day event at the HPE Customer Innovation Centre brings senior decision-makers and IT leaders together to move past the noise. We’ll explore why so many AI projects stumble, identify practical frameworks for success, showcase real-life multi-industry use-cases, dive deep into data & IoT foundations, and build a roadmap you can take back and act on. Over breakfast, lunch, networking drinks and a guided tour of HPE’s cutting-edge facility, you'll engage with AI experts and peers to turn aspiration into action.

Why you should attend

Growth

See how AI can transform your organisation and uncover the most valuable opportunities for growth.

Learn
Learn from what doesn’t work — Understanding failure modes is the fastest path to success.
People Circle
Drive business impact — Focused on tangible outcomes (productivity, efficiency, new business models) rather than just technology.
Network People
Network and access expertise — Direct access to HPE and leading-vendor specialists in an immersive innovation environment.
Software Transform
Stay ahead of transformation — With AI and IoT reshaping business operations, this event ensures you’re leading rather than following.

Key takeaways

By the end of the day, you’ll understand the top reasons AI projects fail, what to avoid and how to mitigate risk, and you’ll have clarity on which types of AI (and IoT) matter most now across industries and how to identify high-value use cases for your organisation. You’ll gain a practical framework and roadmap for successful AI implementation to take into your strategy meetings, and deep-dive into data and infrastructure fundamentals, including how data must be structured, governed, secured and leveraged for real value.

 

You’ll explore the evolving role of IoT in 2026 and beyond — moving beyond sensors and connectivity to the next wave of insights, automation and business models — and see real-life outcomes and case studies that show what success looks like when AI is done right across multiple sectors. Throughout the day, you’ll also connect with peers and experts for ideas, partnerships and clear next steps in the informal settings of breakfast, lunch, drinks and a technology tour.

Who should attend

This session is ideal for CEOs, CFOs, CIOs, CTOs, and senior IT or technology leaders. It is also designed for business unit leaders responsible for digital or AI transformation, as well as heads of data, analytics, innovation, and operations. It will be especially valuable for organisations looking to move AI beyond pilot projects into full production and achieve measurable business value.
