3. How feasible is it to use AI to accelerate modernization?
4. How can organizations innovate and deploy AI despite legacy constraints?
5. How do we operate across both China and US tech stacks in today’s geopolitical landscape?
2026 has just begun, and we’re excited to continue building this vibrant community of AI and business leaders — connecting ideas, people, and opportunities, and driving cross-industry collaboration that sparks innovation and reshapes the future together.
