Most AI projects don't fail because the model isn't good enough. They fail because of how the problem was chosen, the metrics people trusted, how the team worked, and everything around the AI.

In this insightful session, Bahgat Ahmed will introduce the SHIP
Framework—a practical way to evaluate whether an AI project is ready to move beyond Proof of Concept (PoC) and into real-world production.

What You'll Learn:
✅ Why over 80% of AI projects never make it beyond PoC
✅ The SHIP Framework for building AI that actually ships
✅ A practical checklist to evaluate and improve your own AI projects
✅ Lessons from deploying production AI across finance, education, government, and enterprise
