Reminder: Expert Access: Barclays: Expert call with former OpenAI Director of Strategic AI Integrations

explore where value is likely to accrue, including the relative roles of software vendors and

LLM providers in owning orchestration, workflows, and end-customer relationships. We

will also discuss how enterprise IT budgets may evolve as AI adoption scales, including the

balance between application spend and model/API consumption, and what this means for

pricing power and monetisation. We will examine which companies are best and worst

positioned.
