About this session

Hosted Group Discussion | Enterprise-Ready Agentic AI Platforms - Timing, Readiness & Roadmaps| Christian Lang, Vice President Data & Analytics and CIO Western Europe IT, STADA Arzneimittel AG

Agentic AI promises a shift from isolated AI use cases to autonomous, goal-oriented systems that can act, decide, and orchestrate workflows with minimal human intervention. While the potential is significant, many organizations are still assessing when the right moment is to invest, how to make such platforms enterprise-ready, and what prerequisites need to be in place before rolling them out to self-service users.
This moderated discussion focuses on real-world perspectives rather than hype. Participants will exchange experiences on how they are currently dealing with agentic AI: whether through early pilots, controlled experiments, or strategic roadmaps. The conversation will explore questions such as readiness of technology and governance, integration into existing platforms, risk management, and the balance between speed, control, and scalability.

Key discussion themes include:
• When does agentic AI move from experimentation to enterprise relevance?
• How are organizations enabling self-service users while maintaining governance and security?
• What lessons have emerged from first implementations or early steps?
• How do current and planned roadmaps reflect realistic maturity expectations?
