Roundtable Title: Build Agentic AI for Faster Resolutions & Frictionless Customer Care

4 June 2026 11:30 am - 1:00 pm EST
Data-driven.
People first.
Executive Engagement.

How ready are we for a future where governed AI agents take action across customers care and fundamentally redefine ownership, trust, and the role of humans in the loop?

Today’s customers expect seamless, personalized support across every channel, often beginning outside of owned platforms, while contact centers face rising costs, fragmented systems, and increasing regulatory pressure. As expectations grow, organizations are struggling to balance efficiency, experience, and compliance, all while questioning how much autonomy AI should truly have in customer interactions.

Leading organizations are shifting from experimentation to intentional design, exploring how agentic AI can move beyond assistive tools to take meaningful action across customer care. This requires rethinking ownership, governance, and accountability in a no-code world, while ensuring data, workflows, and operating models are ready to support AI-driven execution with the right guardrails in place.

Join IBM and a select group of your peers as we discuss how to define the role of agentic AI in customer care, how to balance autonomy with trust and governance, and how to evolve success metrics as AI becomes an active collaborator in delivering faster resolutions and more seamless, frictionless customer experiences.
