IDC AI & Hybrid Cloud Roadshow

Redefining Digital Business Through AI-Led Innovation

Sandton Convention Centre, Johannesburg, South Africa
Overview

AI has become one of the most important technologies for organizations around the world. Indeed, IDC's latest forecast indicates that META region spending on AI is growing at CAGR of 29.9% and will reach $6.8 billion in 2026. The recent rise of generative AI is being hailed as the great disruptor of every facet of life and business, providing smarter, faster, more scalable, lower-cost, and higher-value solutions. At the enterprise level, AI is being incorporated into existing enterprise technology environments such as code generation, content management, marketing and CX applications, and product design and engineering.

In addition, cloud-centric operating models have grown to become integral components of modernizing IT environments across South Africa. Those organizations that adopt resilient cloud-based models are perfectly placed to transform the application of technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning into on-the-ground competitive advantages that can be leveraged to execute their visions for the future.


Join us at this exclusive event that will feature insights from senior IDC analysts and technology executives as they explore the very latest AI & Cloud adoption trends. A series of keynote presentations and panel discussions will provide invaluable insights for every CIO and CTO looking to commit time and intellectual capital to ensure their organizations are fully prepared to avoid missteps and capitalize quickly on the potential of AI & Cloud across both IT and business.
