While many conversations focus on AI trends and predictions, this discussion brings together enterprise leaders who are directly responsible for AI investments, outcomes, and accountability within their organizations.

Join senior practitioners from leading enterprises and Wipro as they share firsthand perspectives on measuring AI ROI, managing token economics, establishing financial guardrails, and building operating models that transform AI from experimentation into sustainable business value.

Why Join the Session

Join this session to explore:

  • Measuring AI ROI beyond productivity metrics
  • Managing token consumption, model costs, and AI financial transparency
  • Building governance frameworks that balance innovation with accountability
  • Creating operating models that connect AI investments to business outcomes
  • Understanding what boards, CFOs, CIOs, and CDAOs now expect from AI programs
