AI won’t fix broken processes or disconnected systems. Learn the six foundations that help organisations become truly AI ready and turn AI into a force multiplier rather than faster chaos.

AI is often presented as a quick solution, but successful AI adoption depends on the strength of the foundations already in place. In this session, Mark Cooray will explore the six key elements of AI readiness: processes, data access, people, technology, governance and business goals.

You’ll learn why AI should be viewed as the next phase of digital transformation, how to identify barriers hidden in your current systems, and where to focus your efforts before investing further in AI. The session includes practical examples and discussion to help you assess your organisation’s readiness.

Key learnings:

• Assess your organisation against the six foundations of AI readiness and identify gaps that may limit successful AI adoption.
• Explain how connected systems, accessible data and strong governance create the conditions for effective AI outcomes.
• Identify practical steps to strengthen your organisation’s digital foundation before investing in AI tools and automation.
