Is your GBS model ready for what’s next?
The rules of value creation are changing, and GBS must evolve with them.
As agentic AI accelerates disruption and business expectations shift, traditional definitions of cost efficiency and scale are no longer enough. Some of the most established GBS models are already being challenged, making it clear that the future will demand more than incremental change. It calls for re-imagination.
SSOW Europe 2026 brings a bold, outside-in perspective to that re-imagination. By putting the spotlight on customers and business leaders, the event challenges GBS organisations to rethink their purpose, influence enterprise-wide AI adoption, and redefine value in a rapidly changing world. The focus is not just on rethinking scale, but on becoming smarter, more relevant, and truly future-ready GBS.
