Propulsion 2024: Connecting in the New Cloud Era

With all there is to learn at this year’s Propulsion, it will be impossible to leave without a long list of actions and strategies to improve your business in 2024.

As the landscape of manufacturing and product innovation undergoes rapid transformation, Propulsion 2024 is designed to be a crucial nexus for forward-thinking professionals and businesses. 

The first in-person gathering in its history, Propulsion 2024 promises to unlock new horizons of growth, innovation, and competitive advantage. 

Here are the key themes on the agenda:

Leveraging AI and Data for Disruptive Innovation

At the forefront of this year's conference is the pivotal role of artificial intelligence (AI) in driving the new era of cloud PLM. Propel Software's CEO, Ross Meyercord, will share groundbreaking insights on harnessing the power of the cloud to open untapped market opportunities, enhance product innovation, and ensure a more responsive future.

The integration of AI and data analytics into the fabric of modern business strategies is a central theme of Propulsion 2024. IBM's Paul Zikopoulos will delve into how data-driven technology and AI can identify 'solvable problems,' paving the way for disruptive innovation and growth. 

The conversation around AI's role in enhancing corporate productivity and reshaping global manufacturing practices will be further enriched by insights from Professor Nitesh Chawla of the University of Notre Dame. His exploration into the practical applications of generative AI and machine learning will offer attendees a roadmap for harnessing these technologies to stay ahead in an increasingly data-driven world. 

Finally, we'll zoom in on the Health and Life Sciences (HLS) sector's rapid evolution, fueled in large part by AI and cloud innovations. Kevin Chien of Salesforce will unveil the transformative potential of the Salesforce Life Sciences Cloud, illustrating how Propel customers can leverage AI for unprecedented healthcare outcomes.
