Business Beyond AI: Exploring the Challenges of Effective Technology Adoption Across Sectors

Go Back

Location: The Stafford, London

Businesses rely heavily on analytics. Data has advanced our ability to make better decisions in significant ways. However, successfully adapting to the shifting demands of industry requires enterprises to implement data and analytics across a massive breadth of areas in order to understand ‘what is’ today and to rapidly experiment and analyse many potential ‘what if’ futures. At Skyral, we’ve seen firsthand what moving beyond simple data visualisation and AI looks like–and it is truly transformative.

Unlike solely using data analytics, advanced Modelling & Simulation technology is used before, during, and after decisions are made, giving users the ability to see many potential outcomes in minutes - encouraging rapid experimentation throughout the decision-making process. Large organisations sit on a wealth of data, insights, and information, but that comes with the limitation of sitting in silos. Silos hamper organisations’ ability to view a much clearer picture of the intricate, interconnected behaviours that business operations, real-world events, and changing environments have on the ability to make decisions.

But this also requires businesses to be intimately in tune with the attitudes, norm, and behaviours of their workforces. This event will explore the current challenges businesses face when it comes to achieving buy-in for digital transformation, including technology adoption difficulties, risk assessment, and mitigation strategies. Together, we’ll discuss the value of working with service providers who are clear about their delivery, capabilities, and what it means to be a customer’s technology partner. We’ll also demonstrate what an effective technology partnership looks like, using Skyral’s recent deployment of our Modelling & Simulation software to NATO’s largest international military exercise as a case study.

Key discussion points:

Technology Adoption at Pace and Scale: How can businesses drive adoption and support buy-in of new technologies across business areas?
Technology Partnerships: How can businesses work with technology service providers to create a symbiotic ecosystem that delivers value and reuse?
Moving Beyond AI: How might businesses move beyond buzzwords around AI and ‘Digital Transformation’ in order to harness actual efficiencies using other, more expansive novel technologies?
Business Challenges: How are businesses across sectors thinking about risk assessment and mitigation? Are there cross-sector similarities or pitfalls? What is the role of technology in supporting businesses to overcome such challenges?
