Roundtable

From Proof of Concept to Production: Making AI Work in Your Product

Apply to attend

At the mid-point of 2026, most ISVs have already begun their AI journey. Yet despite significant activity, many remain stuck between experimentation and production. While early use cases demonstrate promise, turning them into reliable, scalable and customer-ready features introduces new challenges around evaluation, latency, cost and trust.

Bridging that gap – moving from pilot to production, and laying the foundations for scalable, AI-native products – remains a key focus for many. So what does success on that journey look like? What are best-in-class firms doing well, and what can you learn from them? And how do you put the right architecture, infrastructure and governance strategies in place to enable long-term progress?

Join AWS and a community of your peers for this Meet the Boss virtual roundtable to find out, and explore how to gain the clarity, consistency and control needed to successfully move from proof of concept to production when it comes to AI.
