What unfolded quickly moved beyond AI hype into the real engine room of the AI boom โ€” and the hard business realities leaders are now grappling with: energy constraints โšก, compute demand ๐Ÿ’ป, cloud economics โ˜๏ธ, enterprise adoption, and what it truly takes to scale AI meaningfully across organizations. ๐Ÿ“ˆ

One insight stood out clearly:
The companies winning with AI are not simply deploying more tools or chatbots. They are redesigning workflows, rebuilding operating models, and rethinking strategically how intelligence flows through the organization. ๐Ÿ”„

What made the session especially meaningful was seeing NUS Business School alumni at the forefront of one of the biggest business shifts โ€” sharing sharp insights and real-world perspectives with the community. ๐ŸŽ“

Our heartfelt appreciation to Ananthan (Anan) Sanggar (MBA'17), Gaurav Havelia (MBA'16), and Professor Jussi Keppo for such a candid, insightful, and thought-provoking discussion.

And thank you to the incredible audience whose thoughtful questions made the session even more engaging. ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ

One hour is never enough for conversations with National University of Singapore alumni leaders at the forefront of such a rapidly evolving space.
