Chris Street, Group Chief Revenue Officer of ST Telemedia Global Data Centres, discusses the findings of a new regional research study, Mind the Gap: Bridging the AI Infrastructure Readiness Divide, examining how organisations across Asia are progressing from AI ambition to execution. Commissioned by STT GDC with research partner Ecosystm, the study reveals that AI ambition across Asia is high, with nearly 90% of organisations having embarked on their AI journeys. However, a significant 71% remain in the "Builder" stage of maturity, where initial AI pilots struggle to scale into production environments capable of delivering consistent and measurable return on investment (ROI).

In this discussion, Marie Hargraves, Principal Crisis Advisor at Semperis, explores how organisations can move beyond firefighting to build true cyber resilience. She explores how fragmented communication, unclear ownership, and lack of real-time coordination cause response efforts to break down under pressure. She also unpacks why post-incident reviews so often fail to translate into meaningful resilience improvements, leaving the same mistakes to resurface in the next attack.

Andy Bates, CISO/Chief Product Officer at StonesThro, explains how the company, working in partnership with Cornerstone, a leading mobile infrastructure services provider, has successfully executed a groundbreaking Proof of Concept (POC) for micro-edge computing. The trials have demonstrated that distributed architectures can deliver sub-10ms latency, essential for many IOT applications, while significantly reducing the carbon footprint of AI and data processing. As Andy summarises, taking the compute power usually locked away in massive warehouses and deploying it in the regions where it is actually needed and makes the cloud local, sovereign, and sustainable.

Dom Selvon, Chief Technology Officer, at Valliance, an AI consultancy, argues that, with boards and leadership teams under pressure to deploy AI quickly, many organisations are investing in agents that aren’t aligned with how their business actually works. Dom explains that, when it comes to deploying agentic AI, what truly matters is the enterprise intelligence stack underneath agents and agentic platforms – how an organisation defines truth, makes decisions, and governs risk - ontologies which govern agents will be the next stage of unlocking AI’s potential for businesses.

Laurent Gil, President of Cast AI, discusses the findings of the company’s 2026 State of Kubernetes Optimisation Report, a comprehensive analysis of GPU, CPU, and memory utilisation across non-optimised Kubernetes clusters. Drawing on data from tens of thousands of clusters, the report delivers a clear and urgent message: GPU are poorly utilised despite their cost, at 5%; the efficiency gains that Kubernetes was designed to unlock are not emerging naturally with scale, and the gap between what organisations are paying for and what they are actually using is widening.

Ofir Bloch, VP at WalkMe, discusses the results of WalkMe’s fifth annual State of Digital Adoption report, which reveals that over half (54%) of workers bypassed AI tools and completed tasks manually at least once in the past 30 days. A further 33% haven’t used AI at all. Rather than friction, the research describes outright rejection. Ofir explains what’s going wrong within the enterprise, with executives and employees apparently at odds when it comes to AI, and explains the ways in which this situation can be addressed for the benefit of individuals and their organisations.

Oliver Simonnet, Lead Cybersecurity Researcher at CultureAI, discusses the findings of the company’s The State of Enterprise AI Usage: The Illusion of Control report, which reveals a growing gap between how AI is used in practice and how organisations believe it’s being controlled. The report shows that, while 72% of organisations believe they have full visibility into AI usage, 65% still report detecting unauthorised shadow AI, revealing a structural gap between perceived control and operational reality. Oliver goes on to explain how, in order to adopt AI at scale responsibly, businesses must move beyond policy and implement real-time, enforceable controls where risk is actually created.
