Overview

Leaders are entering 2027 with plenty to worry about: geopolitics, regulation, cyber threats and a fast-moving AI market. Yet organisations are not standing still. Budgets are moving, teams are changing shape, and AI is everywhere.

This short report brings together the key findings from Aurora Live’s two Executive Outlook 2027 reports, built around the themes of the Aurora Live Executive Days in November 2026. It shows how peers are setting priorities, responding to uncertainty, and testing whether AI is delivering.

We hope it helps you benchmark your organisation against peers across Europe and sparks ideas for your own plans.
