Becoming a Frontier Firm with Microsoft AI
VIRTUAL EXECUTIVE SESSION
How Leaders Operationalize Microsoft AI Securely Across Data, ERP, and Workforce Productivity
Thursday, May 21st, 2026 | 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM PT (LIVE)
Why Frontier Firms Matter Now
Many organizations are investing in AI, but very few are translating that investment into secure, scalable business outcomes. Most are still navigating pilots, disconnected use cases, fragmented data, and unclear paths to measurable ROI.
That is where the idea of the Frontier Firm becomes increasingly relevant. They are using AI to run the business differently, with stronger decision-making, more intelligent operations, and improved workforce productivity.
In this executive session, we will explore what sets Frontier Firms apart and how leaders can apply that thinking across key business priorities using Microsoft AI.
