Talk Title:  The AI Reset: Reinventing Technology, Talent, and the Enterprise

Abstract

Artificial intelligence is dismantling assumptions that have shaped enterprise technology for decades. Traditional application architectures are giving way to AI-native systems. Software development is being redefined by autonomous agents. Cybersecurity, data, and infrastructure are being rebuilt around AI. At the same time, job roles are shifting, skill requirements are changing faster than ever, and organizations are rethinking the talent they need to compete.

How do technology leaders, practitioners, and businesses stay ahead instead of being left behind? This keynote explores the forces driving this transformation and offers a practical playbook for navigating the AI reset, building durable skills, and creating lasting value in a world with oppresive pace of change.
