Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving beyond experimentation.

Organizations are now exploring how AI agents can automate decisions, assist employees, govern information, transform business processes, and create new enterprise applications. But building an AI-ready organization requires more than selecting a model or launching a chatbot.

Enterprises need trusted data, strong governance, scalable infrastructure, institutional knowledge, and a practical strategy for turning AI investments into measurable outcomes.

These are the conversations at the heart of SOLIXEmpower 2026.

The three-day enterprise AI conference will take place from October 28–30, 2026, at the Qualcomm Institute, UC San Diego. The event is hosted in partnership with UC San Diego’s School of Computing, Information and Data Science and the SPARK AI Consortium at the San Diego Supercomputer Center.

From AI Experiments to the Agentic Enterprise

SOLIXEmpower 2026 focuses on how organizations can create an AI-ready foundation and move toward intelligent, autonomous enterprise operations.

Conference discussions will cover major areas such as:

• Enterprise AI
• Enterprise data governance
• Cloud data management
• Agentic AI systems
• Generative AI use cases
• Application knowledge graphs
• Enterprise archiving
• Data preservation
• Data products and marketplaces
• AI governance and compliance
• Content intelligence
• AI in healthcare and life sciences
• AI-enabled finance transformation

The program combines keynotes, panel discussions, workshops, demonstrations, product conversations, networking sessions, and opportunities to meet professionals working across data and AI.

Why Enterprise Leaders Should Attend

AI transformation affects nearly every business function.

Chief information officers and technology leaders must determine how AI fits into their enterprise architecture. Data leaders must establish the quality, security, lineage, and governance required to support trusted AI. Compliance teams must address privacy, preservation, and regulatory responsibilities.

Business leaders must identify use cases that produce real value rather than isolated experiments.

SOLIXEmpower allows these perspectives to come together.

Participants can learn how organizations are approaching AI adoption, modernizing legacy data environments, improving information governance, and preparing structured and unstructured data for intelligent applications.

• Records and content management
• Healthcare and life sciences
• Finance transformation
• Digital transformation
• Academic and applied AI research

The conference is particularly valuable for CIOs, CDOs, CTOs, enterprise architects, AI leaders, data governance professionals, researchers, product leaders, consultants, and technology partners.

Learn Through Practical Workshops and Discussions

The published agenda includes sessions on putting AI into the hands of business users, accelerating AI-enabled data-preservation projects, classifying dark data, automating data access, building application knowledge graphs, governing agentic enterprises, and developing organizational AI skills.

Additional panels explore autonomous decision systems, trusted agentic AI, AI-ready data assessments, AI in healthcare, semantic knowledge systems, AI warehouses, and governance for autonomous agents.

These sessions can help attendees move beyond general AI awareness and begin addressing the operational questions that determine whether enterprise AI succeeds.
