The demand for AI solutions is skyrocketing, reflecting a growing recognition of AI’s potential to enhance customer experiences and unlock business growth. Hybrid AI offers businesses a clear path to capitalize on AI.
What is hybrid AI? Hybrid AI refers to the ability to use technology to access and extract insights from data across different domains (personal, enterprise, and public) rather than a single environment. This approach enables businesses to make informed decisions and achieve the desired outcomes.
Hybrid AI Presents Major Opportunities
AI adoption is at an all-time high, with 87 percent of CIOs having already adopted AI in their businesses or planning to do so within the following year.1 It's no surprise, then, that CIOs are looking to their solution providers to help them harness the huge productivity potential of AI. Since 2024, requests for GenAI proofs of concept2 have nearly doubled, and investments in AI are expected to increase significantly over the coming year. For Lenovo 360 partners, this represents a golden opportunity to deliver production-ready solutions that are validated to solve specific business problems with measurable ROI.
Overcoming Hybrid AI Adoption Obstacles
While interest is high, many organizations are struggling with the implementation of AI. A staggering 61 percent of CIOs express challenges in demonstrating ROI with tech investments3, and only 5 percent1 have systematically adopted AI across their enterprises. Issues such as unclear ROI, insufficient data, and a lack of in-house expertise are slowing down progress. As a Lenovo 360 partner, understanding these pain points allows you to provide tailored solutions that facilitate smoother AI adoption.
