A 2.7x reduction in cost per token and a ruggedized edge device capable of running 80 billion parameter models are reshaping how enterprises think about AI infrastructure economics. Justin McGarry, VP and GM of Compute and AI Infrastructure Software at HPE, and Justin Christiansen, GM and HPE Global Sales Director at Intel, join Six Five at HPE Discover 2026 to break down how virtualization savings, workload-specific CPU and GPU architecture, and component supply pressure are shaping enterprise AI decisions right now.

Hybrid cloud, networking, and AI are converging into a single set of architectural decisions for enterprise IT, and separating the signals that matter from the noise requires analysts tracking the market in real time. David Nicholson convenes a Six Five analyst roundtable with Tom Hollingsworth, Fernando Montenegro, and Alastair Cooke at HPE Discover 2026 to break down the trends shaping the next era of enterprise technology.

Scaling AI from pilot to production exposes infrastructure readiness, operational complexity, and governance gaps that most enterprises underestimate until deployments are already live. Lakshmanan A V, VP and Global Practice Head, Cloud Infrastructure and Security Services at Wipro, joins Matt Kimball and David Nicholson at HPE Discover 2026 to examine how organizations are building scalable AI foundations through hybrid cloud strategy, operational transformation, and the HPE and Wipro collaboration that connects AI-ready platforms to the operational capabilities required to deliver long-term business value.

As AI moves from experimentation to production, networking is becoming a strategic foundation for enterprise transformation rather than a background infrastructure consideration. Kevin Hutchins, SVP of Strategy and Corporate Development for HPE Networking, joins Six Five at HPE Discover 2026 to examine how the HPE and Juniper combination has evolved over the past year, what self-driving networking means in operational practice, and what enterprise leaders should prioritize to prepare for the next generation of network architecture.

As enterprises move agentic AI from experimentation into operational deployment, leaders are confronting new questions around governance, token economics, and measurable business value. Dan Waibel, Global Chief Data and AI Officer at HPE, joins Six Five at HPE Discover 2026 to examine the practical priorities organizations need to address to scale AI responsibly while maximizing return on investment.

Enterprise infrastructure teams are managing an expanding mix of AI, edge, and traditional business workloads while controlling cost, risk, and operational complexity. Krista Satterthwaite, SVP and GM of Mainstream Compute at HPE, joins Six Five at HPE Discover 2026 to examine how agentic AI and distributed environments are reshaping enterprise IT strategy, and where technology leaders should focus first to build a foundation for what's next.

Enterprise AI deployments are evolving from isolated projects into end-to-end operational platforms, and the convergence of AI infrastructure, networking, and open architectures is at the center of that shift. Trish Damkroger, SVP and Chief Product Officer for HPC and AI at HPE, and Praveen Jain, SVP and GM of Data Center at HPE, join Six Five at HPE Discover 2026 to examine how sovereign AI, networking, and infrastructure decisions are converging to shape the next phase of enterprise AI adoption.

 Organizations are looking for faster, more flexible ways to scale AI and cloud infrastructure while balancing performance, cost, and operational complexity. Phil Mottram, EVP and Chief Sales Officer at HPE, and Nathan Goulding, SVP of Engineering at Vultr, join Six Five at HPE Discover 2026 to examine how the HPE and Vultr partnership is helping enterprises accelerate AI adoption and cloud transformation through technology innovation and infrastructure built for next-generation cloud customers.

Antonio Neri's HPE Discover 2026 keynote repositioned networking as the platform AI performance depends on, not infrastructure support underneath it, while sovereign AI, governance, and customer proof points emerged as the connective tissue behind the agentic enterprise. Daniel Newman and Patrick Moorhead break down the keynote's biggest themes and what enterprise leaders should actually prioritize, fresh off Newman's conversation with Neri.
