AI capabilities are advancing faster than many organizations can put them to work. While experimentation is widespread, a gap remains between access to powerful models and delivering meaningful impact at scale. Join Emmanuel Marill of OpenAI for a conversation with Isabelle Sonnenfeld, Strategic Advisor at Explicit Protocol, about how enterprises can close that gap - and what changes as AI moves from tools that support individual tasks to agents that can carry work forward across systems and workflows. Drawing on their experience scaling technology and adoption across international markets, Emmanuel and Isabelle will explore where agentic AI can create practical value, what separates experimentation from successful deployment, and what organizations need across strategy, technology, talent and trust to move from pilots into production. The conversation will be followed by audience Q&A and networking. Speakers 🎤 Isabelle Sonnenfeld — Strategic Advisor, Explicit Protocol.
