AI Roadmap Series: Cloud Innovation

AI is moving at unprecedented speed. Your competitive advantage no longer relies solely on having the best AI tools, but on your people knowing how to use them to drive business value. This strategic webinar delivers the blueprint for creating an AI-fluent organization. We'll show you how to design a practical, future-proof AI skills development framework that quickly elevates technical and non-technical teams, turning your workforce into a powerful, competitive differentiator.

The AI Skill Shift: Creating a Culture of AI Fluency and Skills for Rapid Digital Transformation

Six months ago at Google Cloud Next '25, a standing-room-only session with executives from Anthropic, Databricks, Oracle, SAP, The Enterprise AI Playbook: Five Must-Have Strategies, outlined five essential strategies that every enterprise needs for AI success. Given the rapid pace of change, are those strategies still valid? Half a year later, the market and technology have matured. Join executives from Anthropic, Databricks, Oracle, and Google Cloud as they reconvene to discuss how the core playbook has evolved and discuss the hard-won lessons from the last six months. They will dive back into which of the original five strategies remain critical, which have been obsoleted, and the new imperatives organizations must adopt today to successfully move from pilot projects to production-grade, responsible AI at scale.
