Build or Buy? The AI Vendor Landscape in IT

Wednesday, March 19, at 1:00 PM ET | 10:00 AM PT

Webinar Summary


As conversations around AI continue to evolve, organizations are faced with an important decision: whether to build or buy AI solutions.

Making the right AI decision has become overly complicated, with a multitude of factors and differing perspectives. Organizations can feel pressured to decide based on what others in their industry are doing, but this perspective excludes factors unique to each organization. Further complicating the decision is an AI vendor landscape that is large and fragmented. Get our expert take on the build or buy debate when it comes to AI.

Join this dynamic webinar where we’ll discuss:

  • What to consider when making the decision to build or buy AI solutions.
  • How IT leaders can use Info-Tech’s AI Marketplace to guide their decision.
  • How off-the-shelf AI solutions can be used to augment application development, data analytics, IT security, and more.
