Sagentia CTO Forum shares practical guidance for transformative GenAI in R&D
Sagentia’s CTO Forum tackles issues of material interest to R&D leadership with the goal of sharing insights and of developing actionable tools and methods that can be put to practice within the R&D function and so help companies tackle key challenges ahead.
To create these outputs, Sagentia participates in (and facilitates) the Forum, regularly consulting with senior executives of the participating companies, drawing on its own wide base of knowledge and experience, and undertaking its own research.
