AI Leadership Series: Enterprise AI Working Group
Be part of our first exclusive working group for executives and IT leaders who are driving AI change within their organisations. Learn how other leaders are implementing and experimenting, contribute your experience, accelerate your AI maturity, and add value to your business.
Join the group of enterprise AI leaders for this virtual roundtable and be part of the first wave of insight-driven discussions.
1:00-2:30pm BST, Wednesday 10th September 2025

This peer-led forum offers a unique opportunity to benchmark your progress, exchange ideas with fellow leaders, and walk away with actionable insights to advance your AI strategy.
What to Expect?
The session begins with a fireside chat featuring Adaptavist’s CIO and CTO, Neal Riley and Jon Mort — our resident AI leaders who shape both our internal strategy and advise enterprise organisations on theirs. Joined by Alejandro Veliz Fernandez, Solutions Architect and AI expert from AWS, they'll explore what’s next for enterprise AI, from agentic assistants to embedded intelligence across every business function.
From there, the focus shifts to peer-to-peer discussion. In small breakout groups, you’ll benchmark your progress, exchange insights with other senior leaders, and identify the most impactful next steps to scale AI safely and effectively.
This isn’t a webinar, it’s a closed-door, collaborative session designed for candid conversation and meaningful takeaways.
We’ll cover:
- What an AI-integrated business really looks like
- The rise of agent-powered teams and where they’re heading
- Moving from experimentation to adoption
- Culture, data and training as enablers
- How to assess maturity and unlock next-stage value
How Are Other Leaders Making AI Work?
While every organisation’s path looks different, we’ll use a simple framework to guide the discussion:
- Exploration – understanding the opportunities
- Experimentation – testing and learning in pockets
- Scaling – moving from pilots to enterprise-wide adoption
Where are you now — and what’s helping or holding you back? You’ll hear what’s working for others, what isn’t, and what to try next.
