Overview
The importance of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and automation in the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), retail and logistics industries continues to grow and re-define businesses. Changing customer buying behaviors and paradigm shifts from the physical to the digital realms create new demands from businesses — delivering personalized and seamless customer experiences in-store and online; improving product design, optimizing inventory allocation, replenishing stocks, and providing effective pricing and discounting.
At Infosys, we envision a future where digital transformation and machine learning capabilities make business tasks easier and more accurate, enable store associates to be more engaging and effective, and result in more satisfied and loyal customers.
This roundtable offers an excellent opportunity to connect with peers and experts from the industry to discuss, contribute and learn how AI, digital innovation and automation can drive business transformation.
We invite you to attend this session to get detailed information on:
- How to automate repetitive tasks, and improve IT and operational efficiencies
- Innovative methods to leverage data for better prediction models and shorter product lifecycles
