Red Hat at AI Summit London 2026

With open source, no one faces the uncertainty and complexity of AI alone. Navigate the guesswork, mitigate the risks, and stay in control with AI-enabled tech you already trust. 

Enterprises around the world already trust and rely on our hybrid cloud platforms to work anywhere. And since real-world AI success requires technology that adapts to your business needs and new advancements, those same platforms are at the foundation of our AI offerings—and are now even easier to use.  Red Hat AI is an enterprise-scale platform that accelerates AI innovation and reduces the operational cost of developing and delivering AI solutions across hybrid cloud environments.

AI That Fits Your Business, Not the Other Way Around 

Wednesday, June 10
12:10 -12:35
Creative AI Stage

Most AI platforms expect you to reshape your operations around their constraints: centralise your data, commit to their cloud, accept their model choices. But enterprises don't work that way. This session challenges the one-size-fits-all approach to enterprise AI. We'll explore why the gap between general AI and your AI is where real value gets created, and examine a different approach: one where models connect to your data wherever it lives, where you choose right-sized models that balance cost and capability, and where you deploy on infrastructure that makes sense for your business. If you're tired of being told to adapt to AI rather than having AI adapt to you, this talk is for you.
