Rising IT spend, SaaS sprawl, and limited visibility across cloud, on‑prem, and emerging technologies are leaving many organizations exposed to unnecessary cost and risk. According to the 2025 State of ITAM report, complete IT visibility dropped to just 43%, and only half of organisations reported having visibility into their SaaS environments. Shadow IT and SaaS sprawl only compound the issue further.
Yet without a clear, unified view of what’s being deployed, used and needed, IT leaders are making critical financial and operational decisions without reliable data – which, in turn, is driving overspend, non-compliance exposures, and missed opportunities to optimize and reinvest. AI is accelerating these challenges, but the core issue remains the same: a lack of control across the hybrid IT estate.
Those who don’t act risk falling behind leaders who are already improving cost efficiency and decision-making. So how do you build a shared, trusted view across ITAM, FinOps and the broader technology landscape to proactively manage cost, eliminate waste and strengthen governance?
Join Flexera and KPMG, alongside a handpicked group of your peers, to find out how leaders are gaining visibility and control across their entire IT estate, and why having this foundation is becoming essential to staying competitive in an ever-evolving space.
Discussion Topics
Why AI is driving innovation – as well as a new wave of uncontrolled IT spend
What greater control and visibility over the IT estate really looks like in 2026 and beyond
How to embrace technology innovation and build resilience in the face of increased risk and regulation
