Testimonials
"It’s been an inspiring and challenging week exploring how to turn AI into a true competitive advantage. My key takeaways: the right starting point is always asking, “What problem are we trying to solve?” And, without strong data foundations, AI cannot deliver sustainable impact. I gained great insights from faculty, guest speakers, and peers – your perspectives made the journey even more valuable! I look forward to applying these learnings in procurement and supply chain, using AI not as a buzzword but as a driver of resilience, innovation, and growth."
