As Artificial Intelligence (AI) reshapes the product development landscape, enabling faster innovation through AI-assisted development, intelligent automation, and generative technologies, organizations are confronted with a critical question: Is AI simply making it easier to build products, or is it helping build the right products?

The session will bring together industry leaders with deep expertise in engineering, product strategy, and AI-driven business transformation to examine how organizations can balance speed with quality, innovation with customer value, and experimentation with trust in an increasingly AI-enabled world.

Mr. B. Jayaram, Founder & Director of Shaswat-BT Enablers and former Vice President of Engineering at Atonarp Microsystems, will share perspectives on lean product development, engineering excellence, and building resilient innovation processes. Mr. Ramani Vaidyanathan, Enterprise Growth & AI Strategy Advisor and former Global Go-to-Market Leader at Salesforce and SAP, will discuss AI-powered innovation, achieving product-market fit, and strategies for scaling products in global markets.
