AGENTIC AI FORUM - JAN 26, 2027

Canada's executive forum for moving agentic AI from experimentation to enterprise deployment, productivity, governance, and measurable ROI

The Agentic AI Forum is Canada's executive forum for moving enterprise AI from experimentation into operational deployment.

Taking place in Toronto on Jan 26, 2027, the Forum brings together C-suite executives, transformation leaders, AI and data leaders, operations executives, governance professionals, investors, and enterprise technology providers.

This is not a general AI conference. It is a focused day built around the decisions enterprise leaders are making now:

• How do we move AI pilots into production?
• How do we measure financial impact and productivity gains?
• How do we design governance that boards, legal teams, and regulators will approve?
• How do we eliminate manual work and improve operating margins?
• How do we evaluate AI platforms, vendors, and deployment partners?
• How do we prepare for the autonomous enterprise?
