Talk tracks
"The way enterprises design, build and operate technology is undergoing its most significant shift in a decade. Complexity is rising, business expectations are accelerating, and architectures are becoming more distributed, interconnected and experience-led.
For this year’s Technology Chapter, we’re anchoring our agenda around the themes that will genuinely shape how technology leaders drive value, modernisation and resilience over the next 12–18 months."
Continuous Modernisation: Rebuilding While Running
In 2026, transformation isn’t a programme, it’s a continuous capability.
Enterprises are modernising legacy estates incrementally, retiring old systems safely, and evolving their platforms in real time.
The challenge is modernising without causing disruption. Leaders are redesigning capabilities, re-platforming selectively, and using modular approaches to deliver steady, low-risk progress.
This theme focuses on modernisation strategies that let organisations evolve at pace without ever stopping the business.
Product-Centric Operating Models: The End of Project-Led IT
Organisations are shifting from projects to products, moving ownership closer to value, improving accountability and aligning technology delivery with business outcomes.
In 2026, product operating models are no longer experimental. They’re becoming the default structure for technology teams.
This requires new governance, funding models, talent structures, and clarity on what it means to own a business capability end to end.
We explore how organisations redesign teams, rituals and decision-making to unlock agility and long-term impact.
Intelligent Automation & the Rise of Enterprise Agents
Automation has shifted from isolated scripts and RPA bots to orchestrated, intelligent workflows.
We’re now entering the era of enterprise agents, systems capable of planning tasks, making contextual decisions and coordinating work across platforms.
In 2026, leaders are exploring how to integrate these agents safely, define guardrails, redesign processes and ensure humans and machines work in harmony.
The conversation is moving from ‘what can we automate?’ to ‘what should we automate and how should hybrid teams operate?
