BCG is proud to announce an expanded partnership with @OpenAI to drive enterprise-scale AI transformation using OpenAI’s new agentic platform, Frontier. “AI is central to how CEOs think about competitiveness and growth,” says Dylan Bolden, Global Chair of Functional Practices at BCG. ”Our latest AI Radar survey shows that most CEOs now personally own the AI agenda and are increasing investment. Across industries, organizations are moving from experimentation to enterprise-wide deployment. ”The opportunity comes not just from access to models but also redesigning how work gets done so AI delivers measurable performance. ”That’s why we’re expanding our partnership with OpenAI. By combining OpenAI’s Frontier platform with BCG’s deep industry and functional expertise and BCG X’s build-and-scale capabilities, we help organizations move from isolated use cases to enterprise transformation –  supporting strategy, integration, workflow redesign, and global deployment, and ensuring AI is embedded into operating models, governance, and ways of working. “For our clients, this means faster deployment, stronger integration, and clearer accountability for results.” on.bcg.com/46mQ3Vz

Change management rather than technology is the defining factor of a successful AI transformation. That was one of the key messages shared by Christoph Schweizer during a panel discussion about the Intelligent Co-Worker at #WEF26 on Wednesday. "Companies will succeed if they really change how their people work. To do that, you need to change processes, organization, incentives, skills, leadership, culture," Schweizer said. And that means CEOs should be at the fore of AI transformations. “As we work with leading companies around the world: when it comes to AI, we say make this a CEO problem, and don't delegate it somewhere down in the organization."
