You are invited to an evening of exclusive networking, fine dining, and crucial insights, courtesy of Chief Wine Officer & Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE). At London’s Michelin-starred HIDE, you will meet a select group of IT, AI, and ops experts to explore the full potential of the competitive advantages offered by intelligent network infrastructure. You’ll learn how AI-native networks are redefining what’s possible for service-led operations, customer experience, and revenue growth. Throughout your conversations, you will also enjoy a guided fine wine tasting and our famous Chief Wine Officer competition, led by celebrated wine expert Libby Brodie; recently named as number 19 in Drinks Retailing’s ‘Top 100 Most Influential in Drink’ list. Shall we book your seat at the table?
Today’s customer-facing organisations face an unprecedented transformation, with AI rapidly pushing the boundaries for networks, operations and digital experiences. The competitive advantage lies in a network that is faster, more secure, and continuously available. We’ll share the latest examples of cutting-edge innovations that are building customer loyalty and skyrocketing both employee and customer experiences. With this approach, UK retail giants Halfords were about to reduce network-related trouble tickets to zero, while simultaneously raising uptime by an unprecedented 35%. With the insight gained from this unique event, you’ll be able to do the same.
Key discussion points
- Network-driven innovations that foster loyalty and enhance revenue
- Enhancing employee and customer experience by deploying AI-native networks
- Identifying the defining traits of future-ready, resilient B2C business infrastructure
This exclusive experience is limited to just 10 IT, tech, and operations leaders from customer-facing organisations in London. You’re welcome to invite a relevant senior colleague by contacting the Event Director—but spaces fill up quickly, so RSVP now to secure your place at the table.
