Join Imperva (Thales Group)’s Michael Daly and Alkira’s David Klebanov for an informal coffee chat on how 2025 reshaped enterprise networking – and what needs to change in 2026. This fireside-style session skips the buzzwords and focuses on the hard lessons learned this year and the core principles that should guide every network roadmap going forward.
Topics Covered:
- Key 2025 takeaway: multi-region is the norm, AI workloads stretch from core to edge, complexity is everywhere – and outages are the tax.
- Why legacy, box-by-box network thinking breaks in an AI-driven, cloud-first world
- The design principles for 2026 networks: agility, automation, resiliency, and zero-trust by default
- How to translate those principles into a pragmatic 12–18 month modernization plan
Expect a light, candid conversation with strong points of view, real-world stories, and plenty of time for Q&A – built to help network, cloud, and infrastructure leaders sharpen their strategy for the AI era.
