Sessions

Staying Relevant – How Can SAM Evolve to Deliver Business Value in the Age of AI and Automation?

Panel Discussion

Monday, October 06

06:30 pm - 07:15 pm

Live in Amsterdam

Less Details

As automation and AI technologies redefine IT operations, Software Asset Management must move beyond compliance and cost control to stay relevant. The future of SAM lies in enabling smarter decision-making, improving software usage, and contributing directly to business outcomes. But what does that transformation require — in terms of tools, mindset, and skills?

This panel brings together SAM leaders to debate how the practice must evolve to meet modern demands and where AI and automation can accelerate that shift.

  • How can SAM teams shift from static tracking to real-time, value-focused practices?
  • What role will AI and automation play in redefining core SAM responsibilities?
  • How can SAM contribute to strategic IT and business decisions, not just compliance?
  • What skills, tools, and data foundations are needed to future-proof your SAM practice?
