Reddy is also a Microsoft AI MVP (Most Valuable Professional), a title awarded by Microsoft to outstanding community leaders who actively support technical communities through consistent knowledge sharing. MVPs have deep knowledge of Microsoft products and services, or related open-source technologies, and they use their skills and influence to help others learn, build and use these technologies.

In his presentation, titled “AI Strategy Roadmap: Navigating the stages of AI value creation”, Reddy will explore the importance of making AI strategic and intentional from inception, to achieve sustainable returns.

He will guide attendees through the process of developing a strategic, scalable plan for AI adoption for their organisations, focusing on practical steps to integrate new tools, processes, and systems over time.
