“Agents aren’t a project you finish. They’re a capability you cultivate, a business you transform, and an ecosystem you steward.” Naveen Sharma, Arvind Pal Singh and Arumugam Kumaradassan took to the stage to discuss how to engineer agentic AI systems for success and navigate change at enterprise-scale. A few takeaways: • The future agentic stack will be hybrid with a context layer built around it – that overlap between AI capability and unique business context is what no competitor can replicate. • Tracking token usage alone does not capture yield, observability needs to shift to value derived. • AI potential is truly realized when reimagining the business, not just reengineering it. • AI provides judgement, governance and compute. Automation isn’t the goal, outcomes are. In short: A context-enhanced agentic stack + purposeful business process transformation + governed change management = long-term impact at scale. #CognizantDiscovery2026
