AI
A year ago, many companies were still testing AI pilots. Today, AI experts are helping CEOs close the AI value gap and achieve impact at scale by embedding GenAI and agentic platforms across functions, operating models, and tech stacks. One thing we’ve discovered along the way is that building human capabilities is key to unlocking the full potential of AI.
Trade
International business models are evolving as companies adapt to manage risk and stay competitive amid the fragmented markets of a multipolar world. In this atmosphere of heightened uncertainty, BCG experts help C-suite leaders develop resilient business strategies and enhance their geopolitical skills to act with agility.
Growth

The challenge for CEOs now is to identify winning growth strategies for all-weather scenarios, while reigniting ambitions within the C-suite and the boardroom for the bold pursuit of long-term value creation.
