The gap between AI enthusiasm and AI in production is where most enterprise initiatives stall. In this keynote, Red Hat’s leadership, customers, and partners show a different path, grounded in real AI journeys from frontier models to open source optimization, and proven in production at some of the world’s most demanding enterprises. Hear how Red Hat’s unified platform — spanning infrastructure, sovereignty, and intelligence — gives organizations the foundation to move fast with AI without betting on the wrong technology, the wrong vendor, or the wrong moment. The future isn’t one cloud or one model. It’s the right platform.
