In an era where every outage, audit, and cyberattack is a test of organisational survival, resilience has become the new currency of trust. While traditional perimeter security with: firewalls, intrusion detection, and scanners, remains essential, it is no longer a sufficient guarantee against modern threats that bypass these layers to penetrate your core systems. Today, enterprises require security and continuity that are built-in, not bolted-on. This CIONET roundtable focuses on the shift from reactive disaster recovery to proactive Business Continuity. Together with experts from HPE Zerto, we will explore how organisations can transform their recovery strategies into seamless continuity models.

AI is no longer confined to supporting human tasks. We are entering the agentic era, where autonomous systems act on behalf of people and organisations. These agents can gather information, make decisions, negotiate terms, and even complete transactions. The implications extend well beyond technology; they touch the very foundations of business models, governance, and leadership. For CIOs and their peers, the rise of “machine customers” and autonomous partners poses new questions: Market impact: How do you compete and create value when some customers and suppliers are machines? Governance: What trust, compliance, and accountability structures are needed when AI acts independently in financial, procurement, or customer-facing processes? Leadership: How should CIOs guide their organisations in redefining roles, responsibilities, and decision-making when agents take over parts of the value chain?Business strategy: What opportunities emerge for new revenue models, platforms, and ecosystems shaped by autonomous interaction? This session shifts the focus from the mechanics of AI agents to the decisions that will shape leadership in the next decade. It is a call for CIOs to prepare for a future where relationships, markets, and strategies are no longer limited to human-to-human interactions, but also extend to human-to-machine and machine-to-machine interactions.

SaaS gave business units freedom: quick onboarding, no infrastructure, and instant results. But over time, that freedom turned into fragmentation. Each team now buys, renews, and configures its own stack. HR has one platform, finance has another, and marketing probably has ten. The invoices keep coming, usage keeps dropping, and no one is sure who’s accountable for what.

Everyone says they’ve gone product-centric. In reality, most organisations live in a hybrid world where projects, products, and platforms overlap. Teams manage releases while still chasing deadlines, and governance still thinks in milestones rather than outcomes. The shift is underway, but the mindset hasn’t caught up.

The game has changed, clearly. Attackers have AI, defenders have AI, and both sides are learning faster than anyone expected, or maybe the attackers are just a bit faster. What used to take hours now happens in seconds, and detection windows close before alerts even appear. It’s adaptation beyond automation, and no one gets to sit still.

Transforming B2B content creation at 2X with Jasper
2X needed a content solution that would scale with the company. With its multifaceted functionality and adaptability, Jasper proved to be the perfect fit for 2X's needs.
2X, a B2B marketing as a service agency, found itself facing a significant challenge amidst its rapid growth. As the company grew from 5 employees to 600 over the past six years, the demand for content creation skyrocketed, leaving the content team racing to keep up. The content team is responsible for various content needs including email campaigns, whitepapers, SEO blogs, ad copy, and pillar ebooks. To add to this task, niche industries require specific messaging and 2X’s content writers needed a better way to produce content more consistently.
They needed a solution to increase efficiency and boost their content production in a cost-conscious way. Plus, as the content team could double in size over the next year, 2X also needed a solution that would scale with their company.
That's when they discovered Jasper. With its multifaceted functionality and adaptability, Jasper proved to be the perfect fit for 2X's needs. From ideation to the actual writing process and editing, Jasper seamlessly integrated into their workflows, providing a personalized experience. By alleviating the hefty demands the content team faced, Jasper enabled more productive work and allowed the writers to continue to thrive in their roles as B2B content creators.
With accessible training materials like the Jasper Academy and Agency Partner Program, 2X was able to onboard Jasper efficiently and solve their needs quickly. Vikram Ramachandran, the lead of AI initiatives at 2X, couldn't be happier with the results. “Jasper Brand Voice, the Jasper API, and custom templates are all scalable features that helped us utilize the tool better…Jasper has been quite approachable for us as a hyper-growth business.”
Implementing Jasper at 2X was a strategic move aimed at improving efficiency and scaling individual productivity across a team of 55 content writers. From ideation to actual writing and editing, Jasper's broad functionality and user-friendly interface seamlessly integrated into the company's workflow of start-to-finish content creation. This allowed the team to focus on crafting compelling narratives and refining their ideas, resulting in content that drove meaningful engagement with their audience.
A compelling example- the Remix template proved to aid as a thought partner at 2X, enabling the team to easily repurpose content and discover fresh perspectives. Vikram affirms this by stating “If I've been staring at the same piece of content for too long… I can remix it up and it may not be the final product but it's enough to spur us in the right direction.”
The Brand Voice feature within Jasper proved to be a game-changer for 2X. Niche industries demand consistency and specific messaging, especially as their business scales, and Jasper's Brand Voice feature ensures that the content produced aligns perfectly with each client's brand identity. Maintaining a consistent tone and style across 2X’s B2B copy projects, from ads to whitepapers, became effortless, resulting in high-quality content that resonated with target audiences.
To ensure adherence to best practices and streamline their content creation process, 2X used custom templates that they purpose-built for their content needs as well as general templates already available in Jasper. The ad templates served as valuable guides, providing writers with a structured framework to follow while creating content. The team quickly implemented industry-standard practices with Jasper's assistance, resulting in content that consistently exceeded client expectations.
With Jasper as an AI assistant across the content team, the company’s SEO blogs were generated 50% faster, allowing the team to consistently produce content while maintaining quality. Additionally, whitepaper writing witnessed a 40% reduction in time, freeing up resources to focus on other critical tasks. Jasper has transformed the content creation process at 2X, enabling them to deliver faster results for their B2B clients. By improving efficiency, maintaining brand consistency, and streamlining their workflow, Jasper has become a valuable asset to the content team. With 2X's dedication to ongoing training and the support offered by Jasper's Academy and Agency Partner Program, the narrative of growth is intertwined with Jasper. As the company plans to double its numbers, the team remains confident in Jasper's adaptability and scalability, ready to write the next chapters of its success story.
