Board of Innovation’s AUTONOMOUS 2026 program for September 9–10 brings enterprise AI work into view across retail, healthcare, energy and other industries. The virtual summit focuses on how organizations change the way they operate as AI capabilities develop.

For leaders responsible for growth, the useful comparison may come from outside their own industry. A retailer and a pharmaceutical company serve different customers, but each has to decide where a new capability is useful enough to change how its teams work.

Enterprise perspectives on the program

The agenda includes Natalia Andrievskaya of Zalando on enterprise AI operating models, Saurav Gupta of Takeda on moving from proof of concept to performance, and Sameer Khan of ExxonMobil on choosing the right business constraint.

Other sessions examine human oversight, organizational change and the economics of services. The updated opening-keynote listing names Dominik Heinrich, replacing the previously announced OpenAI session. Official agenda, checked September 10

Rebuilding how the business makes money

BOI’s work on business model transformation provides the commercial context: identifying changes in what customers will pay for, then developing offers and operating capabilities around those economics. BOI’s approach to value creation

BOI partner Amir Ouki’s services session brings that question directly onto the program. A business that prices work by the hour has to consider how its revenue changes when fewer hours are needed to serve a client. Charging for an outcome is one possible model to examine against its own economics.

The agenda’s final session is scheduled to end at 18:00 UTC on September 10. The event site provides the program and access details.
