About this session
Enterprises are moving beyond agent demos to make agents work reliably in production. This conversation explores how to bridge that gap: what must change in operating models, architecture and workflows; how cloud infrastructure can support deployment at scale; and how to manage orchestration, guardrails and human oversight without slowing progress. It will also examine where agents deliver real efficiency today, where returns remain uncertain, and why so many projects struggle to scale.
