On 9th June, leaders and innovators will gather at Meta for WORKTECH26, a flagship event exploring how emerging technologies are reshaping the world of work. We are proud that Lolly is a partner for this year’s event, supporting conversations that matter as organisations navigate rapid change.
A highlight of the agenda sees our CEO, Peter Moore, chair an expert panel titled 'AI, Work and the Workplace: Who Wins in the Age of Intelligent Organisations?' Bringing together voices from across industries, the session will explore how AI is influencing not only productivity and performance, but also culture, leadership and the employee experience.
Peter will be joined by industry experts:
- Michelle Andrew - Founder of Meeesh Consulting

- Nicky Chapman - AI Powered Workplace Program Lead, Teams Engineering (UK & Benelux), Microsoft

- Philip Ross - Author and futurist, Founder and CEO, UnGroup and Cordless Group

A turning point for intelligent workplaces
The workplace is undergoing a profound shift. AI is no longer a future concept; it is embedded in the way teams collaborate, how decisions are made and how organisations scale. The conversation has moved beyond automation towards augmentation. How do we equip people to work alongside intelligent systems? And how do organisations ensure that progress benefits everyone?
This panel will tackle those questions head on, examining what it means to build an intelligent organisation that is both effective and human centred.
What attendees can expect
WORKTECH AI + Digital Technologies is designed to bring strategy and application together. Attendees will gain practical insights that can be applied within their own organisations, alongside opportunities to connect with peers who are facing similar challenges.
Across the day, participants will:
- Explore real world examples of AI in action
- Engage with leaders driving transformation across sectors
- Experience demonstrations of technologies shaping the next generation of work environments
- The emphasis is on clarity and usefulness, ensuring that conversations move beyond theory into meaningful impact.
Key themes shaping the discussion
AI in the workplace
AI continues to redefine roles, workflows and expectations. From enhancing decision making to automating routine tasks, organisations are finding new ways to unlock value. The challenge lies in implementing these tools with purpose, ensuring they empower rather than overwhelm.
Human experience and digital adoption
Technology alone does not create better workplaces. Adoption depends on trust, usability and a clear understanding of how tools improve everyday work. Designing with people in mind remains essential, particularly as digital ecosystems become more complex.
Organisational change, trust and leadership in the digital age
Leaders are under increasing pressure to balance innovation with responsibility. Building trust around AI usage, managing change effectively and ensuring transparency are critical to long term success. This theme looks at how leadership must evolve to guide organisations through uncertainty.
Why this conversation matters
The question at the heart of Peter’s panel, who wins in the age of intelligent organisations, is not straightforward. Success will depend on how organisations balance technology with human needs. It will depend on the decisions leaders make today about investment, culture and ethics.
At Lolly, we see daily how the right combination of data, AI and software can transform experiences and operations. Events like WORKTECH provide an important space to share knowledge, challenge assumptions and explore what comes next.
Join the conversation
If you are interested in how AI is reshaping the workplace and want to be part of the discussion, WORKTECH AI + Digital Technologies offers a unique opportunity to engage with forward thinking leaders and practitioners.
We look forward to seeing the ideas, insights and collaborations that emerge on 9 June at Meta, and to Peter leading what promises to be an engaging and thought provoking panel.
