What will separate AI leaders from AI followers in 2026? 🤖

According to Tom Becker, VP DACH at Mistral AI, it comes down to whether companies treat the technology as a core capability or keep it on the sidelines in pilots that never scale.

The companies moving ahead start with the business problem: identifying the one challenge that, if solved with AI, can change a core metric and committing to it at a strategic level.

On day two of AIDAQ 2026, Tom will take the stage to discuss what it takes to build AI that works for European industry.
