Why attend?

AI is quickly becoming embedded in everyday work, and IT leaders are being asked to enable it securely, responsibly, and at scale. At the same time, endpoint decisions around refresh timing, user experience, and cost are under more scrutiny than ever.

In this session we’ll look at the practical realities of AI at the endpoint. We’ll explore why AI-readiness now depends on device capability, how local AI acceleration changes the equation, and what this means for organisations planning their next Windows and hardware refresh.

What you’ll take away

AI-ready endpoint clarity

Understand why AI enablement is now closely tied to endpoint capability, and what to look for when assessing readiness across your device fleet.

Practical insights

Learn how Windows 11 Pro and Surface Copilot+ PCs use built-in AI acceleration (NPU) and chip-to-cloud security to support modern, AI-powered work.

Smarter refresh decisions

Walk away with clearer guidance on how to align refresh timing, security posture, and user experience without blowing out cost or complexity.

Who should attend?

This session is ideal for:

  • IT decision makers and IT managers
  • CIOs and technology leaders
  • End-user computing and infrastructure managers
  • Organisations planning Windows 11, AI, or endpoint refresh initiatives
