AI, Generative AI, Agentic AI - What's next? Enterprises have grappled with multiple tech jumps in the AI landscape, with both capabilities and use cases steadily improving. However, before they can fully adapt, there's already a new prefix to AI that will supposedly "change the fabric of business forever". The noise and hype around AI is becoming harder to sift through and navigate.? ?? In light of this challenge, Zinnov co-hosted an event with EvoluteIQ focused on themes surrounding the 'Enterprises of the Future', where CXOs discussed how they are approaching the benefits of AI today and what they are preparing for tomorrow.? ?? Here were a few key takeaways:? ·??Cybersecurity remains critical in AI deployments, requiring guardrails to prevent model infiltration? ·??Enterprises want to leverage AI primarily for speed and efficiency, accelerating development and improving time to market? ·??Transparency in AI adoption ensures internal teams stay aligned with platforms rather than working with a black box #AI #AIinbusiness #Enterprisesofthefuture Here are a few photos from the event.

Tech's greatest limitation isn't technology—it's conformity. Innovation demands diversity. The missing piece? Probably you. Last year, we made sure women leaders commanded our stage. This year, we're extending that vision to our audience. (After all, the best conversations happen when different perspectives collide.) Join us at Zinnov Confluence 2025 on July 17-18 in Bengaluru with our Women's Day special registration. Tech's future is too important to leave to the usual suspects.
