28.5.2026 13:00:00 CEST | Business Wire | Press Release
Kinaxis® (TSX:KXS), a global leader in end-to-end supply chain planning and orchestration, is set to host Kinexions North America kicking off next week from June 1-3 at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. The company’s flagship conference will bring together global supply chain, business and technology leaders for three days of product innovation, customer insights, and peer networking as Kinaxis continues to advance its focus on AI-driven decision making across the supply chain industry.
This year’s event will spotlight how organizations are applying agentic AI and orchestration, moving beyond insight to execution, and increasingly from decisions to coordinated action. Speakers from global organizations including Merck, Bristol Myers Squibb, Unilever, British American Tobacco, Qualcomm, ExxonMobil, The Hershey Company, Scotts Miracle-Gro, and Veolia,will join Kinaxis executives to share how they are navigating disruption and improving operational outcomes.
Kinaxis CEO, Razat Gaurav is set to deliver his first Kinexions keynote alongside Chief Product Officer, Andrew Bell and Chief of Agentic Solutions, Manik Sharma who will outline the company’s latest advancements in agentic capabilities and the continued evolution of the Maestro™ platform and ecosystem.
Key themes of the conference include:
- Agentic AI in practice: How Maestro Agents support decision-making across planning and execution, enabling teams to act with speed while maintaining control
- End-to-end orchestration: Connecting decisions across functions, partners, and time horizons to reduce latency and improve alignment
- From insight to coordinated action: Customer-led sessions demonstrating how global organizations are turning real-time visibility into measurable operational outcomes
Those unable to attend in person can experience the opening keynote in real time as it is livestreamed globally on June 2 via LinkedIn Live.
“Supply chains don’t struggle because of a lack of data; they struggle because decisions are disconnected,” said Razat Gaurav, CEO of Kinaxis. “What’s changing is that AI is no longer just informing decisions; it’s becoming part of how decisions are made and executed. That requires a way to bring people, data, and AI together so decisions can be aligned and acted on in an orchestrated way across operations. As organizations introduce agentic AI, there is an opportunity for us to transform our ways of working and create a shift from reacting to change to operating with intelligence and continuously adapting as conditions evolve. I'm looking forward to diving deeper into this topic at Kinexions.”
The event will also feature keynote perspectives from Peter Hinssen, a bestselling author and expert on leading through constant disruption, and Michelle Mace Curran, former U.S. Air Force Thunderbird pilot, who will share lessons on decision-making under pressure. Their sessions will complement a broader agenda of customer discussions, expert panels, and product deep dives focused on how supply chain leaders are building more adaptable operations.
Kinexions is supported by partners including Genpact, Accenture, EY, Scott Sheldon, 4flow, Bristlecone, Deloitte, Google Cloud, PlanetTogether,Microsoft, PwC, and Workday and will feature networking experiences and live programming throughout the event, including a performance by globally renowned DJ and music icon Steve Aoki.
Supply chain leaders face persistent disruption, fragmented data, and pressure to act quickly without sacrificing accuracy or accountability. While many have invested in AI, most have yet to operationalize it across the workflows that determine how supply chains respond to change or trust it to drive coordinated, governed action. Kinexions offers a front-row seat to the future where AI, orchestration and execution converge to deliver real outcomes that matter.

Ardoq Launches AI-First Enterprise Architecture Platform28.5.2026 14:00:00 CEST | Press Release
Ardoq, named a 5x Leader in the Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Architecture Tools, today launched its AI-first enterprise architecture (EA) platform. The release grounds every Ardoq AI output in customers' live architecture data and introduces a new generation of AI agents capable of automating an estimated 40% of routine EA work. Architects today are being asked to defend decisions that generic AI is generating in seconds. Application rationalization choices. ERP transformation roadmaps. AI governance reviews. The questions land on the architect's desk, but the analysis underneath increasingly comes from AI assistants that do not know the architecture. Generic agents reason on whatever document is in front of them, not on the live relationships between applications, dependencies, capabilities, and risks. Ask a generic LLM to trace a five-step dependency chain across the real estate, and accuracy collapses. The answer arrives with confidence. The architect inherits the consequ

Amadeus Redefines Travel Advertising to Help Brands Capture Demand Earlier28.5.2026 13:00:00 CEST | Press Release
Amadeus today introduced the Amadeus Travel Advertising Platform at its Advertising Summit in Nice, France. Leveraging Accenture’s agentic framework for campaign execution, the platform outlines a new approach designed to help travel companies make faster, smarter advertising decisions based on where demand is forming — not just where it has already converted. Travel advertising has become increasingly complex, fragmented across channels and often driven by historical performance signals that arrive too late to capture emerging demand. As travelers plan trips across AI chatbots, search, social, metasearch, content platforms and OTAs long before booking, travel brands face rising acquisition costs and growing pressure to prove return on investment. The Amadeus Travel Advertising Platform connects forward-looking travel demand intelligence with advertising planning, activation and AI-supported decision-making. This enables travel brands to drive profitable demand and decisions by investi
