This week on DisrupTV, we interviewed Crawford Del Prete, President of IDC and Gurvinder Sahni, Chief Marketing Officer at Persistent Systems. We focused on AI's impact on enterprise transformation and leadership. Crawford predicted 8-13% IT spending growth for 2025, driven by 18% server and storage growth and 20% infrastructure as a service. Gurvinder highlighted Persistent's 19.9% revenue increase and the importance of AI in marketing, noting a 12.2% increase in cybersecurity spending. They also discussed the challenges of AI adoption, the role of AI in job markets, and the potential for AI to drive exponential efficiency. The conversation concluded with reflections on the NVIDIA GTC show and the future of AI in business. DisrupTV is a weekly podcast with hosts R "Ray" Wang and Vala Afshar.
