Selling to the CIO: Artificial Intelligence - Channel Asia

AI is set to be one of the most lucrative opportunities for the channel, as it sits right at the forefront of the enterprise innovation agenda. However, delivering AI is difficult, and CIOs are turning to their partners to provide leadership. It is the ultimate test of a partner's ability to engage with their customers around strategy and vision, rather than technical provision. According to IDC, AI – including software, hardware, and services for AI-centric systems – will exceed $US300 billion by 2026 at a CAGR of 26.5 per cent. This makes it one of the areas of most rapid expected growth across all IT.
