The Pilot Trap: Why Enterprise Al Stalls - and How to Break Through

Billions are pouring into Al. Yet inside most enterprises, Al still lives in demos, sandboxes, and innovation labs. The problem isn't model quality; it's operating discipline.

In this candid session, Debanjan Saha argues that most Al initiatives are structurally designed to stall. They're layered onto legacy workflows, governed reactively, and measured by experimentation - not outcomes. The result is a widening gap between Al ambition and business impact.

Debanjan will unpack why pilots fail to scale, how governance must shift from friction to infrastructure, and what it actually takes to move from experimentation to accountable, production-grade Al. This session is for leaders ready to stop funding pilots and start funding measurable results.
