AI has moved beyond the hype. The real challenge for enterprise leaders is turning promising experiments into measurable business transformation. With organizations under increasing pressure to deliver ROI, the question is no longer whether to adopt AI, but how to lead its successful integration at scale.

Discover how Sumair Pervaiz, Group Chief Technology Officer at Morningstar, is approaching this challenge in his session, “Leading AI at Enterprise Scale: From Technology to Business Transformation.” Explore why enterprise AI requires more than powerful models, how leaders can move beyond incremental productivity gains, and what it takes to turn experimentation into meaningful business value. Gain sharp perspectives on the leadership decisions, organizational shifts, and technology foundations required to make AI a true driver of transformation.

Keynote discussion topics:
1. AI Is a Leadership Transformation, Not Just a Technology Revolution
2. Moving Beyond AI Productivity to Business Transformation

4. From AI Experimentation to Measurable Business Value
