Featured Panel Session
AI is Transforming the Aerospace Value Chain
AI will create enterprise business value in aerospace only when it is embedded into the processes that design, plan, manufacture, certify, deliver, maintain, and support aircraft - not treated as a stand-alone IT topic. Join IT leaders from leading aerospace companies, HCLTech and SAP as they discuss how AI and modern enterprise platforms can improve supply chain resilience, accelerate production, and enable smarter, data-driven operations. The panel will share practical insights into where AI can deliver measurable business value and what it will take to responsibly scale AI across the enterprise.

AI is Easy. Impact is Hard.
Despite record investment and widespread deployment, the gap between AI adoption and real business value is widening and the leaders running these programs are struggling to keep up with it.
The AI Impact Imperatives, 2026 is our enterprise AI market report, built on insights from 467 senior leaders across G2K organizations in 10 countries.
The research maps exactly why AI impact is proving harder than AI adoption, where programs are failing and what the organizations closing that gap are doing differently.
