About this event
Generative AI is moving quickly from experiment to operational tool, and few industries have as much to gain from practical, well-applied innovation as wine. This session looks at how Treasury Wine Estates is using GenAI in a real business context, offering a grounded view of what transformation actually looks like when AI meets brand, customer experience, operations, and a category with deep heritage. If you work in AI, digital, consumer brands, or food and drink, this is a chance to hear how one major company is approaching adoption in a way that is both strategic and usable. Expect a focused, in-person conversation that goes beyond hype and gets into how GenAI can create value inside a complex, established business. About the Event AIMG APAC - How TWE is Transforming the Wine Industry with GenAI is an in-person event for people who want to understand how generative AI is being applied in a real-world enterprise setting. Centered on Treasury Wine Estates and its transformation journey, the event is designed to connect big-picture AI shifts with practical execution inside a globally relevant consumer industry. This is not a generic GenAI talk. The strength of the session is in its specificity: the wine industry has unique challenges and opportunities across storytelling, customer engagement, product education, internal workflows, and commercial decision-making. Looking at GenAI through that lens makes the conversation more concrete and more useful. The format is built for people who want substance. Rather than broad claims about what AI might do someday, the focus is on how a business is thinking about implementation now, what problems are worth solving, and how transformation can be approached in a way that aligns with business goals. Because the event is in person, it also creates space for more direct discussion with others interested in GenAI across APAC. That makes it valuable not only for the content itself, but for the quality of conversations around it. What to Expect Expect a session that explores how GenAI is being used to drive meaningful change in a traditional but highly competitive industry. The core discussion will likely examine where AI can support business transformation most effectively, from customer-facing experiences to internal efficiencies and decision support. You can expect the event to cover themes such as: How GenAI fits into a transformation strategy rather than sitting as a standalone experiment Where AI can create value in the wine industry, including communication, personalization, and operational workflows What it takes to move from interest to implementation inside a large organization How established brands can innovate without losing the qualities that make them distinctive There will also be value in the perspective this event brings to AI maturity. Many teams are asking the same questions right now: where to begin, which use cases matter, how to involve the business, and how to separate meaningful adoption from noise. Hearing how one organization is tackling those questions can help sharpen your own thinking. Because the session is part of an in-person gathering, attendees should also expect a professional but approachable atmosphere. This is the kind of event where the formal content matters, but the conversations before, during, and after can be just as useful, especially if you are comparing notes with peers working through similar GenAI questions. Why Attend The main reason to attend is simple: practical examples are more valuable than abstract opinions. If you are trying to understand what GenAI adoption looks like inside a real company, this event gives you a more credible and relevant reference point than another high-level trend talk. You will come away with a clearer sense of how AI transformation can be framed inside a business that balances innovation with operational reality. That includes understanding how GenAI can support growth, improve workflows, and enhance customer or brand experiences without requiring a complete reset of how a company operates. This event is also useful because it sits at the intersection of several important themes: Enterprise AI adoption Digital transformation in established industries Consumer brand innovation Food, drink, and retail-adjacent use cases APAC perspectives on emerging technology For some attendees, the value will be strategic: seeing how to position GenAI internally and identify high-leverage opportunities. For others, the value will be more tactical: understanding what kinds of use cases are gaining traction and what practical considerations shape implementation. If you are tired of AI conversations that stay theoretical, this event offers something more grounded. It is a chance to learn from a concrete transformation story and leave with ideas you can test against your own context. Practical Details This is an in-person event, which makes it especially well suited to attendees who want direct interaction and stronger networking than a virtual session typically allows. If you get the most value from being in the room, asking questions live, and meeting people working on similar problems, the format is a real advantage. The event takes place on Wednesday, February 26 at 3:30 PM GMT+11. That timing makes it a good late-afternoon session for professionals who want to step out of the day-to-day and spend focused time on a high-signal topic without committing to a full-day program. A few practical reasons to attend in person: You can engage more naturally with speakers and fellow attendees You will get context beyond the slides, including side conversations and informal insights You can build relationships with others interested in GenAI, AI strategy, and industry transformation If GenAI is part of your role, roadmap, or curiosity right now, this is a smart use of time. The topic is timely, the industry angle is distinctive, and the in-person format gives the session extra depth.
