  3. Discussions on how operating models and skills need to change for AI.

What's in it for buyers

If you're choosing partners or planning a programme.

  • Check an AI, data or modernisation plan with Forrester analysts in person.
  • Peers share how they fund and organise AI work across the business.
  • Forrester's single North American technology forum, so the audience is broad.

What's in it for vendors

If you're selling services into this ecosystem.

  • Technology executives and architects attend, not a crowd of other vendors.
  • Forrester limits vendor attendance, so sponsorship is the way in.
  • Data and AI foundations are the work attendees are planning next.
