Rino Mura
Director EMEA PartnershipAI model capabilities are expanding fast and in some instances the models already take decisions, with us humans providing the input and executing the actions. Deploying agents in practice though is still held back, for a myriad of good reasons. We will shed light on how to solve those challenges and make agents work in practice, unlocking significant value.

Mostafa Ajallooeian
Engagement Director & GenAI Practice LeadAs enterprises move beyond AI experimentation, many are encountering both operational gains and structural challenges. This panel will address key lessons from early deployments, what’s enabling progress at scale, and where common obstacles—such as governance, security, and change management—are slowing adoption.
The discussion will also cover the growing role of agentic workflows and the organizational capabilities required to support them. Panelists will share their perspectives on what to expect in the next 6 to 12 months as AI becomes more embedded in enterprise operations.
