Pre-Conference Workshop Day

3:15 PM Workshop E: Generative AI 101: Introduction to the Fundamentals

While the hype around Generative AI means the business community is now aware of the technology, many people are still relative beginners to generative AI as it is a relatively new and rapidly evolving field with complex concepts and a variety of technical approaches. With that in mind, this workshop will explore the underlying principles of generative AI models and learn how to design and implement them for a variety of applications.


Participants in this workshop will:


● Understand potential applications - get to know the broad spectrum of Generative AI applications and possibilities e.g. 3D object generation, interactive image generation, and text generation

● Gain an overview of the current technology landscape – understand the tools you can leverage immediately

● Identify the best use cases for Generative AI – learn where you can apply the technology to best effect

● Discuss how to Improve datasets and models – understand the data requirements and how yours can be augmented to best effect

Main Conference Day 1

8:10 AM Kenote Panel: Redefining the Factory of the Future through the Power of Data, Analytics and Artificial Intelligence

● Discussing how AI is reshaping the manufacturing landscape for improved productivity and efficiency

● Automating processes and using intelligent devices capable of learning independently to solve complex problems

● Predictive maintenance and quality control systems powered by AI to minimize downtime and increase productivity

● How has architecture evolved in response to smart manufacturing requirements

1:15 PM Panel: Starting with Autonomous Digital Workflows or Borad Data Transformation – How this Decision Impacts Time to Value, Scalability, and Sustainability

  • How would you describe your digital transformation approach (more data or end to end workflows )
  • How much time, effort and resources are you spending in data contextualization vs transforming the way you work?
  • How much of your data contextualization effort/work is favorably impacting the connected worker?
  • What if you would tackle the manageable, focus of functional silos, freeing minds from routine tasks so we can now innovate?

Main Conference Day 2

1:30 PM Panel: How do you Set Direction for your Digital Strategy while Still Aligning to End User Expectations?

● How do I articulate the benefit of what I am doing and make it meaningful to my organization?

● What strategies do I use to engage end users in the process of selecting and implementing a digital solution?

● How do you strike a balance between investing in a tool that your end user prefers to one that is more suitable from an enterprise perspective?
