Strategic Imperative<br />

THE COGNITIVE ERA<br />

Transforming the Future Global Economy<br />

What is the strategic imperative given the<br />

Disrupt, Collapse and Transform?<br />

Today’s data-driven world is just the opening act to an even<br />

more disruptive digital future. The Internet of Things, Smart<br />

Cities and Big Data are on the brink of this paradigm shift.<br />

This will mark the advent of the Cognitive Era. Industries are<br />

flooded with data from millions of connected devices. The<br />

next stage is using artificially intelligent systems to drive<br />

insight and response, and make real time decisions in this<br />

dynamic world. Business leaders will need to be attentive to<br />

this new mindset to develop proactive and predictive<br />

business practices.<br />

Why Frost & Sullivan?<br />

Frost & Sullivan provides the context to upcoming<br />

opportunities for growth across 12 industry verticals. Our<br />

visionary perspectives on the Cognitive Era and our Digital<br />

Transformation maturity model will help effective<br />

benchmarking and reinforce strategies which will help<br />

enterprises reach new levels of success. In particular, the<br />

focus of Frost & Sullivan's research and advisory services is<br />

on the front end revenue generation elements of a business,<br />

including new channels to market like ecommerce or new<br />

digital business models.<br />

What will the clients get to learn?<br />

Covering multiple industries, our summit highlights top mega<br />

trends and new business models pertaining to specific<br />

industry developments, and reviews their direct impact on<br />

the success of an enterprise. Our sessions will emphasize the<br />

importance of efficiently using a company’s current portfolio<br />

of digital assets and integrating cognitive technologies to<br />

support critical client facing decisions and drive business<br />

outcome.<br />

Why is this important?<br />

What will be the benefit?<br />

• Speaker Profiles: Sourced from our extensive C-level<br />

industry contacts & partners<br />

• Growth Workshops: Strategy workshops for the<br />

CEO’s team hosted by Frost & Sullivan’s experts and<br />

industry thought leaders on changing business<br />

imperatives driven by the cognitive agenda<br />

• Valuable Business Networking Opportunity: Meet the<br />

select key influential minds from the executive<br />

management, decision makers, and industry experts<br />

• Discuss & Deliberate: with Frost & Sullivan’s analysts<br />

on the latest trends impacting the market<br />

The Cognitive Era will drive change in business models,<br />

products/services and industry ecosystems, stemming from<br />

the integration of new artificially intelligent products. These<br />

emerging platforms will help transform existing industries<br />

while shifting mindsets to future needs from today’s<br />

operational realities.<br />

This exclusive and power-packed platform will enable<br />

your teams to understand the strategic initiatives<br />

adopted across multiple industries with respect to<br />

Cognitive technologies and how they can adopt these<br />

in their own enterprises.<br />

09:10 KEYNOTE: THE IMPACT OF MEGA TRENDS ON EUROPE'S<br />

COMPLEX ENVIRONMENT/ EUROPEAN DIGITAL SINGLE<br />

MARKET<br />

Sarwant Singh, Senior Partner, Frost & Sullivan<br />

Europe is bound by an enormous number of out outdated regulations<br />

and systems. New environmental, economic, social and political<br />

developments and trends have challenged these systems, forcing<br />

Europe’s policy-makers to rethink strategies for the future. With the<br />

new growth strategy 'Europe 2020', the European Union is reinforcing<br />

its commitment to becoming a smart, sustainable and inclusive<br />

economy. This presentation examines these developments, along with<br />

other external factors, through a Mega Trend lens and also highlights<br />

macro-to-micro implications on businesses and society.<br />

It will further touch upon the implications of the Digital Single Market<br />

push; Europe's foray into Artificial Intelligence fuelled by Big Data and<br />

Machine Learning; the Fintech revolution; Blockchain technology;<br />

Industry 4.0 evolution and future consumers are expected to redefine<br />

the European landscape of Europe as a singular leader driving<br />

innovation in digital, economic and social themes.<br />

10:55 KEYNOTE: THE NEXT FRONTIER OF GROWTH:<br />

OPPORTUNITIES IN CONNECTED AND MOBILE AFRICA<br />

Aroop Zutshi, Global President & Managing Partner,<br />

Frost & Sullivan<br />

Urbanisation, mobility, infrastructure, natural resources,<br />

telecommunications investments and inter-regional trade are just a few<br />

of the untapped opportunities making Africa the last growth frontier.<br />

The continent is set to become the second fastest growing region by<br />

2025, with a gross domestic product (GDP) of USD4.5 trillion. Africa<br />

is the only continent that has the potential to achieve double digit<br />

economic growth within the next decade. This presentation provides<br />

insights into the challenges impacting the region, innovative business<br />

models and the vast opportunities for investment that the African<br />

continent has to offer.<br />

The 2025 strategic economic plan aimed at doubling Iran's economy<br />

from the current USD 415 billion in the next decade necessitates<br />

investments to the tune of USD1.5 trillion. The country, thus,<br />

epitomises an untapped goldmine that is fast attracting the attention<br />

of global opportunity miners. The Iranian Government's ambitious<br />

efforts to make the country globally competitive are directed towards<br />

creating a favourable business climate for companies to enter and<br />

invest in developing its core focus sectors. Hear about Frost & Sullivan's<br />

perspective on Iran's macroeconomy and opportunities across<br />

industries for global companies.<br />

11:10 THE FUTURE OF FINTECH: KEYNOTE<br />

Luca Raffellini, Director, Business & Financial Services, Frost & Sullivan<br />

Lift your gaze and, on the face of it, banking and financial services are<br />

tough industries to disrupt: systemically vital, established branch<br />

networks, secular expertise in credit underwriting, traditionally “inert”<br />

customers....and yet, key financial sectors are being radically affected<br />

and will increasingly be disrupted, both Retail and Commercial.<br />

In areas like Payments, for instance, new business models are driven by<br />

powerful but essentially well understood forces – e.g. mobile banking.<br />

Other forces, such a Blockchain, have clear disruptive potential in<br />

financial services (and not only) and a less predictable evolution.<br />

We believe the most interesting questions in the future will be around<br />

critical success factors. Most novel Fintech players tend to share certain<br />

success factor, e.g. dramatic reduction of cost to serve, and face similar<br />

challenges, e.g. increased regulatory scrutiny. What about the<br />

incumbents? After a tentative start, established banks and financial<br />

players are rising to the challenge and quickening the pace of<br />

transformation, possibly more so now than in a generation. Big data,<br />

customer journey, new capabilities – it is arguably an exciting time to<br />

be this industry.<br />

Chris White MP, Member of Parliament for Warwick and Leamington<br />

and Business, Innovation and Skills Committee Member - UK Parliament<br />

13:50 THE IMPACT OF DIGITAL DISRUPTION ACROSS INDUSTRY<br />

The Internet of Intelligent Things<br />

Adrian Drozd, Research Director, ICT Europe, Frost & Sullivan<br />

Artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) will be the<br />

two most important developments that will impact across industry<br />

sectors over the next five years. Frost & Sullivan believes that to look<br />

at these trends separately is to miss the wider industry implications.<br />

The Internet of Things cannot reach its potential without artificial<br />

intelligence, and artificial intelligence can only become a reality by<br />

accessing the data generated from the Internet of Things. This symbiosis<br />

will create, ultimately, the Internet of Intelligent Things.<br />

Digital Transformation in Aerospace<br />

Steven Webb, Vice President, Aerospace, Defence & Security,<br />

Frost & Sullivan<br />

Digital transformation affects every facet of the Aerospace industry.<br />

The infusion of digital in the Aerospace supply chain allows the<br />

optimisation of processes, the enhancement of existing revenue<br />

streams, the introduction of new business models and presents an<br />

opportunity to further improve the customer experience. Aerospace<br />

OEMs, Airlines and Airports are three key user groups of digital<br />

technologies and all have seen radical transformation in the way they<br />

do business. We are now witnessing OEMs investing in building their<br />

software and analytics capabilities, whereas Airlines and Airports are<br />

using digital to better connect with their customers onboard and on<br />

the ground. The presentation will focus on the opportunities and<br />

challenges presented by this transformation in the commercial<br />

aerospace supply chain.<br />

Internet of Medical Things<br />

Dorman Followwill, Senior Partner and Director, Frost & Sullivan<br />

The great Healthcare challenge facing humanity can be summarised in<br />

one Big Question: how can we deliver high quality care to every<br />

patient globally in a sustainably affordable way? One key solution will<br />

be the digital technologies revolutionising the Healthcare world. As we<br />

move beyond simple drugs and devices through to integrated<br />

solutions, the pathway to the future will be the digital experience. Key<br />

to this will be Artificial Intelligence to streamline data gathering and<br />

processing, to integrate disparate data sets into seamlessly<br />

interoperable solutions, and to provide analytics that make this data<br />

useful across the Internet of Medical Things - a new platform for<br />

combining wearables, home based patient monitoring and diagnostic<br />

devices, all the various clinic and hospital data sets into one platform<br />

large and versatile enough to help us rise to the great Healthcare<br />

challenge and turn it into a legendary opportunity for the future of<br />

humanity.<br />

IoIT and the Third Industrial Revolution: "One Foot in Today and<br />

the Other in Tomorrow"<br />

John Fleming, Former Executive Vice President, Global Manufacturing<br />

and Labor Affairs, Ford Motor Co.<br />

This presentation starts to explore how Manufacturing and Business<br />

Leaders should think about how to deliver on the current business<br />

plans while preparing for the potential revolution that could change<br />

Manufacturing forever. It asks the following questions, while further<br />

featuring Ford's case study of the aluminium lightweighting<br />

transformation of the company's F-150.<br />

• How different will it really be?<br />

• Who and What needs to change?<br />

• What would the New Manufacturing World look like?<br />

Future of Manufacturing<br />

Muthukumar Viswanathan, Practice Head, Frost & Sullivan<br />

European factories of the future will be driven by their ability to<br />

leverage vital big data and utilise best-in-class information and<br />

communication technologies on the shop floor. Hear about the<br />

implications of modernisation in the age of Industry 4.0 and gain<br />

strategic insight into how current government programmes are<br />

dynamically transforming the manufacturing industry. This presentation<br />

will address some of the critical questions that businesses involved in<br />

Europe’s futuristic industrial market are asking.<br />

Digital Transformation in the Energy Sector<br />

John Raspin, Partner, Energy & Environment, Frost & Sullivan<br />

The energy sector has traditionally been slow to embrace advances in<br />

technology. However, the advent of disruptive forces such as<br />

distributed energy and the movement towards smarter grids is making<br />

it imperative for utilities to act now. The success of utilities is thus<br />

dependent on aligning their needs with the digital innovation being<br />

offered by the vendor companies.<br />

CUSTOMER AND WHAT IT MEANS FOR ECONOMIES AND<br />

BUSINESSES<br />

Olivia Price-Walker, Principal Consultant, Visionary Innovation,<br />

Frost & Sullivan<br />

According to Frost & Sullivan, 100 million more women will join the<br />

global labour force by 2025. In the same timeframe, the gap between<br />

female and male labour participation will reduce by 25 per cent. These<br />

developments affect additional earnings and wealth, making women<br />

an ever more decisive customer group. Leaders and innovators all over<br />

the world are looking for the next growth opportunity, whether it is<br />

an emerging market, digital transformation or new service industries.<br />

This presentation will examine the evidence of addressing female<br />

consumers and how harnessing the power of women in your<br />

economy or organisation will help yield significant returns and uncover<br />

your trillion-dollar customer.<br />

16:00 KEYNOTE: TECHNOLOGY LED BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION<br />

Nina Bjornstad, Country Manager, Google for Work, UK & Ireland<br />

CEO<br />

Sanjay Brahmawar, Global Head & Managing Partner Strategic<br />

Business Development, IBM Watson Internet of Things<br />

The Internet of Things is fundamentally changing the way businesses<br />

create value, companies compete and partner, and consumers<br />

experience the world. The digitization of nearly everything is opening<br />

new opportunities for insight, relevance, and competitive edge.<br />

Manufacturing equipment can tell you when it needs maintenance,<br />

consumer products can tell you how people are actually using them<br />

and what’s in demand. Yet so much of the data being generated by<br />

connected devices is never captured or acted upon—it is too<br />

challenging to manage and analyze, especially in combination with other<br />

data sources. Cognitive IoT systems help you make sense of all types<br />

of data, and apply these insights to transform core business functions<br />

and customer relationships.<br />
