Innovation Summit 2026 – AI Dominates the Landscape
ChatGPT was officially released by OpenAI on November 30, 2022, launched as a free public research preview. It quickly became one of the fastest-growing technology products in history and accelerated the release of competing generative AI platforms across the market.
Federal agencies are following directives such as the Office of Management and Budget’s “Accelerating Federal Use of AI through Innovation, Governance, and Public Trust.” According to the Federal Agency Artificial Intelligence Use Case Inventory, 56 federal agencies reported AI use cases at all stages of development. It shows that the number of submitted use cases rose from 1,757 in 2024 to 3,611 in 2025 – of which 1,818 have been deployed or piloted.
Learning Objectives:
- Scale AI from pilot programs to enterprise adoption
- Build governance, security, and Zero Trust frameworks for AI
- Strengthen workforce readiness, change management, and mission measurement
- Modernize data, infrastructure, and legacy environments for AI workloads
- Improve resilience across hybrid, multi-cloud, edge, and distributed operations
- Address emerging AI threats, security risks, and operational challenges
