Wednesday, March 11, 2026 @ 1pm EST

AI is redefining how Quality Leaders manage the entire product lifecycle, making it possible to achieve quality without compromise while rapidly resolving customer issues.

Instead of forcing trade-offs between quality and business performance, organizations like Schneider Electric use Axion to move from reactive problem-solving to proactive design and decision-making. Quality leaders can now have Quality AND speed, Quality AND cost efficiency, as well as Quality AND sustainability - unlocking better products, faster cycles, and increased customer confidence through faster, more effective customer issue resolution. All of which are critical to Schneider as demand for their products have rapidly increased through the AI-driven data center boom.
