Ragan Announces Keynote and Speaker Lineup for 2026 AI Horizons Conference
Strategists, analysts and enterprise leaders to share practical playbooks for scaling AI with purpose, trust and measurable value.
CHICAGO, IL (Nov. 24, 2025) — Ragan Communications has announced the keynote speaker and full agenda for its 2026 AI Horizons Conference, to be held Feb. 2–4 at the Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Charlene Li, founder of Quantum Networks Group and a New York Times bestselling author, will headline the event with a keynote titled “How to Win with AI: The Leadership Playbook Your CEO Wants.” Li will address why most organizations have yet to realize meaningful return on their AI investments and will outline a framework for aligning AI initiatives with organizational purpose, clarifying leadership roles and establishing the governance needed to scale AI responsibly.
The three-day conference will bring together senior practitioners and analysts from across the communications, marketing, technology and enterprise leadership landscape. Speakers include experts from Verizon, PwC, Google DeepMind, ADP, Cargill, Golin, MWW and McMaster University. Sessions will explore AI governance, measurement, culture change, competitive advantage and how communicators can accelerate adoption while maintaining trust and transparency.
AI Horizons 2026 is designed to help organizations move beyond experimentation by offering practical models, case studies and tools that tie AI efforts to business outcomes. The event will also provide guidance for upskilling teams and building internal structures that encourage innovation without adding unnecessary risk.
Registration is now open, with early bird and group pricing available for a limited time. Click here for more information on the event.
