11:00 AM Case Study: Managing Connected Worker Investment, Navigating Innovation and Avoiding Tech Debt

AI capabilities are advancing at unprecedented speed, creating pressure to invest in connected worker technologies that deliver long-term value without accumulating technical debt. This session explores how to make future-proof decisions that balance innovation with sustainability, ensuring today’s investments remain relevant tomorrow.

In this session, learn how to:

Avoid fragmented data strategies and design systems that evolve with the pace of innovation
Use modular architectures to extend platform lifecycles and integrate emerging technologies like GenAI without costly rebuilds
Evaluate AI investments for adaptability and long-term viability, not just short-term ROI
Align innovation with business constraints to enhance productivity without overwhelming existing systems
Create a unified, interoperable data strategy that supports real-time decision-making and minimizes rework
