IT doesn't just support the digital workplace anymore. It architects it.

The AI-Native IT Playbook Starts at Unite 26

Digital workplace and IT leaders are under pressure to do more than keep the lights on.

You're expected to govern AI at scale, unify systems that were never built to talk to each other, and prove every platform investment moves the business forward. On top of that, employees expect the same seamless experience at work that they get everywhere else. 

At Unite 26, you'll hear directly from the CIOs, CTOs, and digital workplace leaders who are solving these problems today. Here's where to start.

Govern AI Without Slowing Teams Down 

Taking on AI tools is easy. Governing it at enterprise scale while still driving adoption is the hard part.

Building the Intelligent Workplace: The CIO Perspective

Gil Feig, CTO and Co-Founder of Merge, joins Norman Nowak, VP Executive Management Technology and Innovation at Deutsche Telekom, for a CIO-led panel on deploying AI without compromising governance or productivity. You'll walk away with a framework for balancing innovation and control.

Scaling AI That Works: From Foundations to Enterprise EX Capability at Dentsu

Sophie Muskett, Director of Global Digital Platforms, and Neil Marshall, Global Digital Channels Manager, both at Dentsu, break down how they built a governed AI ecosystem on centralized knowledge. See how tools like Copilot move from pilot to enterprise-wide value.

Claiming the Summit: Building a High-Performance Workforce in the Age of AI

Alexia Cambon, Director of the Office of Applied Research at Microsoft, joins Laura Jennings, Deputy Chief Communications Officer at Dentsu. Together, they define what high performance looks like in the age of AI.

Turn Platform Investment into Measurable Impact 

A platform is only as valuable as the outcomes it drives. These sessions connect your technology decisions to the metrics your leadership team actually tracks.

Beyond Adoption: Proving the ROI of Employee Experience

Jay Lupas, Director of Value Advisory at Unily, and Gail Skinner, Value Advisory Manager at Unily, join Paul Batchelor, Marketing and Communications Manager at CRH. They'll show you how to turn engagement metrics into an ROI narrative your board will back.

Embedding AI at Scale: How Adecco Group Is Bringing Its Workforce on the Journey

Samantha Rope, Group SVP of HR Strategy and Transformation, and Niki Turner-Harding, Senior VP and Country Head of Adecco UK & Ireland, explain how a unified platform connects strategy across roles and turns AI investment into measurable business outcomes.

What's in the New IT Playbook? 

It's not about launching more platforms. It's about helping employees get value from the ones they already use. It's not about implementing AI. It's about scaling adoption safely, responsibly, and effectively. And it's not about keeping the lights on. It's about creating the connected digital experiences that power productivity, transformation, and business growth.

That's the playbook being written at Unite 26
