Artificial intelligence (AI) adoption is accelerating rapidly, driving investment, transforming business operations and facing increasing regulatory scrutiny across industries and global markets.

C-suite executives in the UK could be forgiven for going into 2026 in a downbeat mood. It is, after all, a turbulent world out there.
