NIX’s Head of Data and AI, Max Ushchenko, took part in a high-level panel focused on operational AI readiness. With business leaders, founders, and engineers in attendance, the discussion steered away from vague predictions and zeroed in on building intelligent systems that deliver value—sustainably.

“High-quality data, aligned teams, and a clear view of both opportunities and risks—that’s what AI readiness really looks like,” said Ushchenko. “At NIX, we guide organizations through maturity assessments that help map realistic, effective AI strategies without the guesswork.”

Rather than treat AI as a quick-fix tool, Ushchenko emphasized the importance of long-term thinking. He outlined how NIX works with clients to design frameworks that support clarity, governance, and strategic outcomes—turning complex initiatives into structured, scalable programs.

The panel also explored how organizations can bridge the gap between vision and execution through strong cross-functional collaboration. Getting leadership and engineering on the same page, with shared goals and clear ownership, was highlighted as a key success factor.

The MTLC conference once again confirmed Boston’s role as a hub for thoughtful innovation, where technology leaders are focused not just on what AI can do, but on how to do it better. For NIX, the event marked another step in helping organizations move forward with purpose.
