Description

The Digital Frontier: Intelligent Automation

By 2019, the global market for content analytics, discovery and cognitive systems software is projected to reach $9.2 billion, according to IDC, more than double that of 2014.

Intelligent automation is a combination of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotic process automation. The technologies are rapidly maturing to help businesses achieve higher efficiency or drive revenue. The range of applications could be from collecting simple data to making contextual decisions to guiding autonomous vehicles.

Investors are taking notice—investments in artificial intelligence start-ups by venture capitalists have increased roughly 20x in the last four years. Businesses have an opportunity to build a sound strategy for these technologies and leverage existing solutions to reach the new digital frontier.

These technologies also raise several questions from executive leaders: What is the extent of automation possible? Will intelligent automation replace/create new jobs and affect industries on a large scale? How do we explore and start utilizing this technology?

Our esteemed leaders from established organizations, analysts, and coaches will guide us on innovative use cases for Intelligent Automation in the Enterprise. The audience will walk away with a better understanding on how Intelligent Automation can be effectively applied to your enterprise.

Speakers include:

  • Walter O'Brien, Executive Producer of the hit CBS-TV drama series "Scorpion

  • Stephanie Lloyd, Head of New Ventures, Farmers Insurance

  • Mark Roden, Data Scientist, LiveNation

  • Christopher Surdak, Senior Manager in the Advisory Services Practice, Ernst & Young LLP
