The biomanufacturing playbook worked just fine, until the game changed

From AI Ambition To Business Results: Where is Enterprise Value Emerging? Roundtable in partnership with AMD, taking place in London on the 2nd December 2026.
It is now four years since the release of ChatGPT and most enterprise organisations that have moved beyond experimentation and begun implementing generative AI (GenAI)—and sometimes Agentic AI—workloads. Deployment is underway but where is the enterprise value ? Where is AI making a meaningful difference? Is it through improved productivity, supporting better decision-making, or developing new capabilities and operating models?
At this forthcoming Tech Monitor executive roundtable, in partnership with AMD, we’ll consider what effective GenAI rollout looks like. The event—open to senior IT leaders—will explore lessons learned and emerging best practice when it comes to the compute, data and software decisions that shape successful AI adoption. It will also be a chance to consider the role of AI PCs, make informed choices when purchasing CPUs and GPUs, and understand how best to control costs across a remodelled IT estate.
Among the topics we’ll discuss:
* Measuring business value from AI investments
* Designing effective AI architectures
* Evaluating compute capacity needs
* Identifying the role Agentic PCs within the enterprise AI ecosystem
* Assessing AI workload adoption on-premise and in the cloud
* Considering the merits of CPUs and GPUs
* Managing data privacy, operational resilience, and sovereignty
As with all Tech Monitor / AMD roundtables, the focus will be on open and informed discussion among peers and subject-matter experts. We invite you to join us for an evening of insightful conversation and shared learning.

Advancing guidewire performance with Alleima: materials, design and clinical applications
Monday, 30th Nov 2026
From experimentation to enterprise value.
AI is moving beyond the pilot. The challenge now is rewiring how work gets done and proving its impact on the P&L.
Join a select group of enterprise leaders for an intimate, off-the-record evening of candid discussion, a hands-on use-case lab and seated dinner. Explore how to rewire workflows across people, systems and AI, size the return, and turn promising initiatives into measurable outcomes.
Why You Should Attend
A working evening for leaders to test their AI priorities against peers making the same decisions.
Prioritize the Use Cases That Matter
Move from a long list of AI ideas to a short list ranked by measurable business outcome, using a use-case-based framework you can take back to your own team.
Stop Rebuilding the Other 80%
See how enterprises stop hand-coding integrations, context, and governance for every new initiative, and instead assemble reusable building blocks, so each use case makes the next one faster.
Govern AI as It Starts to Act
Discuss practical approaches to access, control, and audit as agents take on real work alongside people — human and AI, with governance designed once and reused everywhere.
Built for Conversation
This is intentionally a small, facilitated evening. Nothing is recorded. It is an opportunity to hear honestly what it takes to move enterprise AI from pilot to production.
Who Should Attend
- CIOs, CTOs, and CDOs
- Chief AI Officers and Heads of AI
- VPs of IT and Digital Transformation
- VPs of Enterprise Architecture and Platforms
Agenda
4:30 – 5:00PM – Arrival and curated introductions
Every guest is welcomed by GlobalData & unifyApps
5:00 – 5:15PM – Welcome: What your board is asking. – Mattew Jacobson – ICONIQ
Where AI value is accruing, and why boards now want it measured in revenue, cost, and risk. How would you answer in dollars today?
5:15 – 5:35PM- Analyst Briefing – Rena Bhattacharyya –Chief Analyst and Practice Lead, Enterprise Technology and Services, GlobalData Technology
Why AI Value Stalls Between Pilot and P&L. Get a third-party perspective on where enterprise AI actually stands and the most common points of failure: pilots added to unchanged workflows, value counted in time saved rather than dollars, and the same solution rebuilt by each function.
5:35 – 6:35PM – Use-Case Lab – George Joseph – Executive Vice President, AI Transformation Office
Workflow Design for Outcomes: At tables of five to six you’ll take a real use case from the room, map its workflow across systems and human and AI interactions, and size its ROI in terms of revenue, cost, or risk.
6:35 – 6:50PM – Break
6:50 – 7:10 Customer Fireside – Margery Lynn SVP Marketing, UnifyApps & Teza Mukkavilli
CIO & CISO, Tekion Corp
The CIO’s Test for AI in Production. How Tekion rewired its workflows to take AI from pilot to P&L: which use cases earned investment, what they built beneath the model to connect systems and govern agents, and how they proved the value to the CFO.
7:10 – 7:50PM Seated Dinner and Table Conversation
Dinner and dessert with peers.
7:50 – 8:20PM Synthesis and Close – Richard Rivera CRO, UnifyApps
Three patterns heard tonight on where AI value lands, and one next step: the UnifyApps team builds a prototype of your priority use case and sends it to you after the event.
7:50 – 8:20 – Dessert, Drinks, and Open Networking
(Optional)
WHAT YOU GET
Following the event, UnifyApps will build a working prototype of the workflow you rewire in the lab.
