Seminar Announcement: AI Transformation through the KPMG Global Technology Report 2026 – A Rational Framework for Addressing Challenges in the Intelligence Era

This seminar will analyze key insights and implications of AI transformation in the intelligence era, drawing from the latest global technology report and a survey of Japanese companies.

Advanced technologies, particularly AI, are significantly reshaping corporate competition and decision-making processes. However, many organizations still struggle to move beyond isolated implementations and achieve meaningful value creation.

In this seminar, we will explain the findings of the KPMG Global Technology Report 2026※ and provide a rational framework for companies facing challenges in talent, budget, and governance to strategically address the transition into the intelligence era. First, we will examine the characteristics of high-performing organizations based on global data from the report. Then, in Session 2, we will present the current state and future vision of AI transformation, using manufacturing as a case study, along with successful examples that demonstrate clear impact on the profit and loss statement.

Although we recognize you are busy, we encourage you to attend this seminar as a valuable resource for evaluating your company’s AI utilization and technology investment strategies.
