Enterprises are moving beyond simple task automation to AI-infused, end-to-end intelligent workflows that orchestrate people, processes, and systems across hybrid environments. IBM’s automation platform combines AI agents, workflow orchestration, and robotic process automation (RPA) to help organizations eliminate manual work and accelerate digital transformation.
As AI adoption accelerates, integration becomes even more critical. 70% of executives believe that by 2026, employees will leverage deeper analytics for real-time optimization as AI agents automate core operational processes — especially in procurement and dynamic sourcing.
The event will explore the evolution from isolated projects to enterprise-wide intelligent operations powered by AI and data. Attendees will discover how to:
Modernize how systems communicate by automating the integration of applications, APIs, and data across hybrid cloud environments. By using AI-driven mapping and proactive monitoring, organizations can break down silos and ensure seamless connectivity between legacy systems and cloud-native apps.
Secure the automated enterprise by integrating identity-as-a-service (IDaaS) - (Smart Identity & Access Mgmt) into intelligent workflows. IBM Verify solutions use automation to streamline user onboarding, manage access through AI-powered risk analysis, and ensure that "frictionless" experiences don't compromise security.
Transform raw data into an autonomous asset - Evolve from data management to data autonomy by applying AI driven automation. By automating data fabric management, governance, and integration, businesses can ensure their AI agents and workflows are fueled by high-quality, real-time information—reducing the manual effort of data preparation and accelerating time-to-insight.
Key Areas of Discussion
By scaling automation from isolated bots to an intelligent enterprise platform, organizations can:
The Automation Symposium is your roadmap to the autonomous enterprise.
