### Overview

Scaling technology companies are uniquely positioned to accelerate innovation, unlock more value from data, and explore AI-driven capabilities. Yet many modernization and AI initiatives struggle to move beyond isolated projects or translate into measurable business impact.

The greatest results come when modernization and AI efforts are grounded in clear business priorities, realistic execution paths, and measurable outcomes, not just experimentation.

This session features an executive-level discussion focused on what is working in the real world, highlighting practical approaches across data, applications, and AI, drawing on real examples from portfolio companies.

You will learn:

\- How growing organizations are structuring modernization and AI investments to drive scalability, efficiency, and product differentiation  
\- Real-world portfolio examples showing how data modernization and GenAI initiatives have accelerated insights, automation, and customer value  
\- How technology leaders are aligning modernization and AI investments to their 2026 roadmaps

\- How Insightly by Unbounce evolved their internal copilot prototype into a robust, agentic AI-powered system in just 90 days
