A NOTE FROM YOUR HOST
Scaling AI You Can Trust
Every business process now has three participants: people, automation, and AI agents. Most organizations can’t see how the three interact, which means they can’t prove AI operated within the rules. That gap is why 42% of enterprises have AI agents in production, but only 26% have scaled it beyond pilots. It’s why Gartner expects over 40% of agentic AI projects to be cancelled by the end of 2027.
iGrafx Connect North America 2026 brings together customers, partners, and enterprise leaders from regulated and high-performance industries to address that gap directly: what it takes to give AI the visibility, context, and guardrails it needs to operate reliably, and to prove it.
This isn’t an AI conference. It’s a conversation about the process foundation that has to exist so AI can be trusted at scale.
High-Level Agenda
Welcome & Market Context — Why AI adoption is outpacing operational readiness.
The Agentic Process Foundation — A live walkthrough of the four layers that let AI scale reliably: visibility, prioritization, context, optimization.
Executive Perspectives — Enterprise leaders on governing AI in complex, regulated operations.
Customer & Partner Perspectives — What it actually took to scale, across industries.
What’s Next — The path toward orchestration and autonomous execution.
Closing, Dinner & Networking — Takeaways, next steps, and time with peers.
Full agenda, timing, and confirmed speakers to be released as details are finalized.
Customer presentations, panels, and peer networking were the highest-rated parts of Connect EMEA. All three are built into the core of this agenda.
Who Should Attend
Business, Process, & AI Leaders driving transformation, operational performance, and enterprise-wide value, across all industries.
