Tech Monitor’s Roundtable: From AI promise to business impact: building future-ready enterprise AI in partnership with AMD, taking place in Copenhagen on the 19th March 2026. An English-language executive roundtable event for senior IT decision makers Just over three years after the initial release of ChatGPT, enterprise organisations are entering a more demanding phase of their generative AI (GenAI) journeys. While pilots and proofs of concept are now commonplace, CIOs and CTOs face increasing pressure to scale these initiatives across the enterprise — delivering measurable value while ensuring deployments are secure, resilient, and sustainable over time. In practice, many AI programmes remain constrained to specific teams or use cases, highlighting the complexity of moving from experimentation to production at scale. How can technology leaders overcome the architectural, operational, and organisational challenges of enterprise AI adoption? How should expectations be recalibrated as AI moves from innovation agendas into core IT and business infrastructure? And what does it take to re-energise initiatives that have lost momentum? These are the questions explored in a new series of Tech Monitor executive roundtables, delivered in association with AMD. Each session will bring together CIOs, CTOs, and senior technology leaders to share practical experiences, lessons learned, and emerging best practice. Discussions will span both strategy and execution, with a deep dive into the compute, data, and software considerations that shape successful AI adoption. The roundtables will examine the evolving enterprise AI stack, including GenAI and emerging Agentic AI approaches, as well as the role of AI-capable PCs. We will explore how AI PCs can support enterprise requirements, where they add value today, and whether their adoption should be limited to specialist roles or extended more broadly across the organisation. Among the topics we’ll discuss: * Scaling AI and GenAI initiatives from pilot to production * Demonstrating and measuring business value from AI investments * Designing AI architectures that are secure, resilient, and future-ready * The role of AI PCs within the enterprise AI ecosystem * Understanding Agentic AI and its practical implications * Expanding and balancing compute capacity * Managing AI workloads across on-premise and cloud environments * Making informed choices of CPUs and GPUs * Addressing data privacy, sovereignty, and operational resilience As with all Tech Monitor / AMD roundtables, the focus will be on open, informed discussion among peers and subject-matter experts. We invite you to join us for an evening of candid conversation and shared learning.

Overview

Finance leaders today are tasked with more than just keeping the company out of the red; they are expected to create an agile, data-driven finance function that can help transform the way the company does business – from connecting insights across the organisation and future-proofing talent, through to mitigating risk.

Join us for this exclusive, invitation-only boardroom dinner where Ralf Marl, Finance Director of Global Business Services at ALDI Süd, shares insight on his company’s current global finance transformation journey, discussing the importance of leveraging shared service models and advanced technologies to streamline processes and improve compliance. This session will explore how global business services (GBS) structures, process scoping, and KPI-driven governance are enabling efficiency and resilience, and provide participants with insights into early implementation steps and the role of change management in driving success.
