Business Innovation Summit Series: Unfiltered Conversations About the Future of Enterprise AI
This special episode of the AI Proving Ground Podcast kicks off a weeklong series of daily releases from the WWT Business Innovation Summit — bringing you unfiltered conversations with the leaders shaping the next decade of AI, cybersecurity, cloud and enterprise strategy. Featuring insights from executives at Cisco, Google Cloud, Microsoft, NVIDIA, NightDragon, Morgan Stanley and more, this series offers urgent, real-time perspective on how AI is transforming the global economy, redefining risk, and rewriting the rules of competitive advantage.
Organizations of all shapes and sizes are at an inflection point. AI is no longer a project or experiment — it's the foundation of how modern organizations operate, compete and grow.
At the WWT's annual Business Innovation Summit, leaders from across the technology and financial landscape made one thing clear: the pace of change is accelerating faster than most organizations can absorb. From the surge in global AI spending to the structural shifts in security, energy, data, and infrastructure, executives must rethink strategy not in years, but in quarters.
This week, we're releasing a special series of daily episodes — unedited, on-the-ground recordings from the Summit's most impactful panels.
You'll hear from executives shaping the future of AI and enterprise technology — voices like WWT Co-founder and CEO Jim Kavanaugh, Cisco President Jeetu Patel, Google Cloud COO Francis deSouza, Microsoft AI Futurist Marco Casalaina and NightDragon Founder and CEO Dave DeWalt, among others.
Throughout the series, you'll hear the ideas, tensions and practical guidance needed to build AI-native organizations, secure infrastructure at global scale, modernize data and energy systems and how to lead teams through transformation with purpose and resilience.
