"The organizations that will lead in the AI era are not necessarily those with the most advanced technology. They will be those that can translate technological progress into human progress," said Prising. "That requires more than deployment. It requires the clarity, the skills investment, and the leadership that help people move forward with confidence, and it is the central challenge we will be focused on this week in Dalian."
Prising will participate in a panel titled "AI Everywhere, Not at Once" on Tuesday, June 23. The livestreamed session will examine the gap between AI deployment and measurable business impact, including how organizations are scaling AI, redesigning work, and building workforce readiness. Other participants include Xue Lan, Dean of Schwarzman College at Tsinghua University; Feng Junlan, Chief Scientist of China Mobile; and Roli Agrawal, Chief Strategy Officer at NTT Data. The session will be moderated by Stephen Engle, Chief North Asia Correspondent for Bloomberg Television.
