Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar
Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar is set to host Marathwada’s first Enterprise AI Summit, @scale, on February 14 at ICAI Bhavan. The summit will highlight the evolving role of Artificial Intelligence in modern business strategy. No longer just a trend, AI has become a decisive factor in enterprise decision-making, driving foresight and strategic growth.
The event is jointly organised by Findability Sciences and Nath School of Business & Technology (NSBT), reflecting purposeful industry–academia collaboration. While AI tools such as ChatGPT and Gemini have made the technology accessible, businesses still face challenges in leveraging structured, real-time data for meaningful decisions. The summit will emphasise Enterprise AI, helping organisations shift from hindsight-based reporting to foresight-driven strategy. Anand Mahurkar, Founder and CEO of Findability Sciences, said, “Enterprise AI embeds intelligence into the enterprise across data, processes, and leadership decisions. This shift is no longer optional.”
Organisers reported an overwhelming response, with more than 75% of registrations already completed, underscoring AI’s growing relevance for the region’s industrial ecosystem. @scale will also demonstrate how Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities like Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar can actively participate in the AI economy. Over the past year, the collaboration launched initiatives including an AI Solutions Lab, leadership-focused AI programmes, and enterprise partnerships. NSBT Director Harsh Vardhan Jajoo said, “AI is everywhere, but clarity is not. @scale guides businesses on using AI to strengthen judgement and generate long-term economic value.”
Speakers from India and abroad include Anand Mahurkar, Art Norins (RS11 Inc., USA), Rakesh Bhatia (Ducere Global Business School, USA), Radhika Krishnaswamy (FS Agriculture AI Division, USA), Deepak M (PwC), Rajendra Deshpande (Ingroup Consulting), Raunak K (Zomato), Atul Jha (Cars24), CA Umesh Sharma, Chandrashekhar Jaiswal (MTDC), Natasha Zarine (Eco Sattva), Harsh Vardhan Jajoo, and others.
