PRE EVENT WORKSHOP: 2024 AI in Oil & Gas Conference

While the world is maturing toward Industry Revolution 4.0 (IR 4.0), we have entered into the era of Industry Revolution 5.0 (IR 5.0) with the business leadership shaken from their seats with Generative Artificial Intelligence (Gen AI) declarations, deployments, and diffusion.

IR 4.0 saw the maturity and adoption of many exponential technologies like Web 3.0, Cloud and Edge Computing, Augmented AI/ML, Data Science, Quantum Computing, and others leading to Digital transformation of enterprises and industries. The integration of Generative AI with IR 4.0 exponential tech shall lead to doubly exponentially disruption for the organizations.

Gen AI infused exponential tech integration has to become a fundamental cornerstone for any business to remain relevant in the IR 5.0 era. This will require key actions by the leadership, board and managers to be taken now rather than delay similar to the delays in Big Data and AI adoption.

In the Masterclass Exponential Leadership and Expertise for leveraging Gen AI Infused Exponential Tech, I will discuss a number of key actions that are needed and what their impact will be and how one can achieve an accelerated pace for actions.

This Masterclass is tailored for top leaders who want to be at the leading edge of digital transformation, and focus on value generation through augmented data-driven innovation within their organization. The program includes a blend of theory, practice, case studies, and interactive activities to maximize the value of the course for your knowledge and growth.
