S&OP: Firefighting Stops Here.

Stop feeding the chaos. Decide faster, together.

For years, companies have invested in building a single source of truth. Yet trade-offs remain complex, decisions are slow, and plans are constantly being called into question.

In 2026, amid market volatility, geopolitical tensions, and accelerating AI adoption, competitive advantage is no longer about having the right data. It’s about making better decisions, faster & together.

It’s time to evolve S&OP from a planning process into a truly integrated decision system—one where processes, technology, and data align the entire organization in the same direction.

The impact: optimized inventory, a shorter cash-to-cash cycle, stronger service levels, and ultimately, greater growth potential.

So how can organizations improve the accuracy and speed of decision-making to turn S&OP into a true AI-powered decision system?

AI Session | September 16 | 1:55 – 2:15 PM

Stop feeding chaos. Decide faster, together.

Most AI-driven S&OP transformations don't stall on the algorithm, they stall on data nobody owns, a process that was never designed for it, and teams that were never truly brought along.

This panel brings together three perspectives that rarely share the same stage:

Stephane Huot, VP Supply Chain at Angelcare — the buyer, running this transformation inside a global CPG business.
Jacques-Antoine, Director of AI at Talan — the integrator, who's seen these transformations succeed and fail, dozens of times over.
Jasneet Kohli, Co-founder at TrueGradient — the builder, developing an AI-native supply chain planning platform.

On the agenda: what's actually changed in the last 18 months, what separates the pilots that reach production from the ones that quietly die out — and how process, technology, and data can converge into a true integrated decision system, capable of aligning the entire organization in one direction.

Speakers :

Stephane Huot, VP Supply Chain at Angelcare
Jasneet Kohli, Co-founder at TrueGradient
Jacques-Antoine Ollier, Director, Data Practice
Jerome Thirion, Vice President, Consulting Services – Operations & Supply Chain

Talan Cocktail | September 16 | 5:00 – 6:30 PM

2026: AI is adopted by everyone. Governed by no one. And it's costing a fortune.

According to a 2025 KPMG study, 59% of CFOs and 61% of CIOs each claim primary responsibility for AI investment decisions.

Both are right. That's exactly the problem.

This shared responsibility creates a blind spot. While finance and IT each believe they own the file, no one actually does. And the bill is steep: 79% of organizations experienced unexpected AI cost overruns in the past year.

AI isn't a technology issue. It's a business issue, and that changes everything: how you prioritize AI use cases, measure ROI, defend it to the board — and who answers for it.

We're bringing together a select group of executives — Finance, IT, Operations — for a direct conversation on these questions.

20 minutes to lay out the problem. The rest of the evening to discuss it among peers, over cocktails — and leave with a sharper question: who, in your organization, actually answers for AI governance — and how?

Cocktail by invitation.
