Data-powered Innovation review | Wave 10

Like desert sands, today’s business landscapes shift with time, pressure, and perspective – reshaped not over centuries, but in weeks. In 2025, data and AI are structured and yet fluid, constantly redrawing what’s possible.

This edition of Capgemini’s Data-powered Innovation Review explores how structure meets adaptability. From rewiring your business for 2030 to deploying AI agents in manufacturing and policymaking, we champion speed, resilience, and the boldness to rethink scale.

Dive into agentic AI, frugal LLMs, AI-native supply chains, humanoid collaborators, and compliance engines with real bite. We’re moving from AI as an add-on to AI as a foundation – from static workflows to dynamic ecosystems.

Yet, in this fast-moving terrain, responsibility anchors us. Innovation must come with trust, transparency, and intent – to shape the dunes, not just trace their patterns.

Our articles feature contributions from leading Capgemini experts, with a special mention of our partner blackshark.ai.

Let’s build with purpose, not just precision.
