AI is redefining what world-class performance looks like. The question is: What separates organizations that achieve breakthrough results from those that don’t?

Join us at The Hackett Group’s 2026 AI Breakthrough Summit, September 16-17 in Atlanta, where senior leaders across finance, global business services, human resources, information technology, payroll and procurement will explore how leading organizations are using AI to accelerate decision-making, improve efficiency, enhance stakeholder experiences and create sustainable competitive advantage.

Through keynotes, functional breakouts, client success stories and peer networking, attendees will gain practical insights for building more intelligent, future-ready enterprises.

AI adoption is accelerating. Enterprise performance is where the real divide is emerging.

Our latest AI World Class research shows a 75% performance gap between organizations that redesign work around AI and those that simply automate existing processes. Leading technology organizations are achieving 27%-35% lower IT process costs and 1.5x-2.5x higher ROI by taking a more disciplined approach to AI investment.

Join us on September 23 to learn how leading organizations are creating capacity for AI, reducing technical debt and directing investment to the opportunities with the greatest business impact.
