The modern workplace is evolving quickly as AI capabilities accelerate and device expectations shift across distributed teams. Many organizations are struggling to support employees with tools that keep them productive, secure, and flexible without adding new layers of complexity. This session brings together peers who are facing similar pressures and who are actively reshaping their device strategies to meet the needs of a more mobile and AI-enabled workforce.

The discussion will explore how companies are evaluating which AI workloads belong on the device and where cloud-based processing remains essential. Leaders will share how they are strengthening endpoint protection, improving mobility, and aligning workplace tools around a consistent employee experience. AMD Ryzen AI processors and Lenovo ThinkPad devices will be referenced as contextual examples of how modern hardware is evolving to support real-time decisioning, privacy-sensitive workflows, and emerging AI-driven tasks.

Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how to connect devices, AI capabilities, and workplace strategy into a unified and forward-looking plan. The conversation is designed to create practical clarity, highlight peer-tested approaches, and provide the confidence needed to modernize without disrupting day-to-day operations.

BWG Connect, Insight Enterprises, AMD & Lenovo invite you to join an interactive event with industry peers to review & discuss practical insights across the digital space.

As always, there will be no sales pitch and all attendees are welcome to listen and learn.
