From Copilot to Colleague: Why AI Agents Will Redefine Growth

AI copilots have already reshaped how we code and create. But the real frontier isn’t in coding — it’s in growth. Every year, B2B companies forfeit trillions to outdated playbooks, wasted leads, and inefficient funnels, while buyers demand more authenticity and trust than human teams alone can scale.

Enter the AI sales agent: not a tool, but a digital colleague. These synthetic sellers prospect, personalize, and qualify on your behalf — building social proof, nurturing opportunities 24/7, and extending the reach of every founder, executive, or sales leader.
The question isn’t if they’ll transform go-to-market, but how fast. In this keynote, we’ll explore why AI sales agents are poised to become the next billion-dollar copilots, how they turn noise into signal, and why the future salesforce will be part human, part synthetic — and far more powerful than either alone.

AI Adoption Beyond the Pilot Trap: Building Scalable and Trusted Agentic Enterprises

AI use continues to broaden across industries, yet most organizations remain stuck in pilot mode. Why do so many promising proofs of concept never scale? In this session, Anup Kumar shares lessons from over 1000+ AI engagements across Asia Pacific to reveal the organizational, technical, and cultural barriers that hold enterprises back. He explores how Agentic AI—AI systems that act and collaborate responsibly—can help break this cycle. Drawing from real customer journeys, he shows what it takes to turn experiments into impact: the right architecture, measurable value, and trust built into every layer.
