Softchoice | Toronto Ai Day 2026

Join us in Toronto for Ai Day, part of World Wide Technology’s global series of full-day events focused on moving AI from ambition to execution.

Ai Day brings together business and technology leaders for a focused day of insight, dialogue, and real-world perspective on organization AI adoption. Drawing on expert viewpoints, customer and industry examples, and structured discussion, the program explores what it takes to accelerate AI outcomes, build AI solutions aligned to business priorities, and scale AI responsibly.

Building on two years of global delivery, Ai Day reflects the lessons, patterns, and realities emerging from service provider and enterprise AI adoption, offering a practical view of what is working, what is changing, and what comes next.

Ai Day is designed to help leaders and practitioners advance AI from strategy to execution by providing clarity on what it takes to operationalize AI across the organization.

Through curated sessions, customer perspectives, engagement with WWT experts and strategic partners, and dedicated networking throughout the day, participants gain practical insight into prioritizing AI use cases, building AI solutions aligned to business needs, developing software in an AI-native organization, and scaling AI responsibly in 2026 and beyond.

The afternoon features twelve 40-minute breakout sessions across four tracks: Build AI, Develop AI, Secure AI, and Scale AI, so attendees can shape an agenda that matches their priorities.

AI has moved from experimentation to execution, and the organizations pulling ahead aren't just running more pilots, they're operating differently.

This keynote frames what's changing in the market and introduces the AI-Native Operating Model: the integrated way people, agents, models, data, and infrastructure produce outcomes together. We'll explore what it takes to accelerate — turning use cases into business outcomes you can stand behind, knowing what to buy versus build, sorting through tokenomics, and treating security as an enabler of speed rather than a brake on it. It's the through-line for the day and the foundation the rest of the sessions build on.

Behind every AI experience is an AI Factory — and it's more than infrastructure. We take a full-stack view of what it takes to run AI at scale: the software and intelligence that power it, the data that feeds it, and the infrastructure that runs and supports it. We'll unpack the choices that shape cost and performance across on-prem, cloud, and hosted — and why the economics of running hybrid AI, not just building it, increasingly decide what's sustainable. The takeaway is a practical, portfolio approach to architecting and scaling AI securely, responsibly, and cost-effectively.
