o9, a leading enterprise AI software platform provider for transforming planning and decision-making, today announced additional speakers for aim10x Digital 2026, its flagship virtual event taking place on March 18. The expanded lineup builds on the previously announced sessions and underscores how enterprise planning operating models are evolving in practice.

Across manufacturing, consumer goods, retail, and technology, leaders will share lessons from their transformations. Sessions will cover replacing spreadsheet-driven replenishment with automated allocation engines, embedding post-cycle analysis into planning cadences, unifying fragmented IT systems into a single planning backbone, and building internal Centers of Excellence that sustain improvement. Newly confirmed speakers include:

• Caroline Chumakov, Principal Researcher, Zero100
• Guus Langenhuysen, Global Process Excellence Lead – Supply Chain Plan & Deliver, Perfetti Van Melle
• Arun Kumaran Manickaraj, Operations Analytics Manager, Silicon Labs
• Daniel Hendri, Business Process Analyst, Silicon Labs
• Kimberly McKinley, Senior Industry Advisor – Worldwide Retail & Consumer Goods, Microsoft
• Kelby Seamen, Vice President, Supply Chain & Merchandising Systems, Total Wine & More

Through masterclasses, executive interviews, and demonstrations, aim10x Digital will explore strengthening governance, improving cycle-over-cycle performance through post-game analysis, and scaling scenario-based decision-making across commercial, supply, and financial planning.

“Planning is shifting from static forecasting to structured decision systems that improve with every cycle,” said Chakri Gottemukkala, Co-founder and CEO of o9. “The companies speaking at aim10x Digital are showing what that shift looks like in practice. From touchless planning and automated replenishment to unified planning foundations, the focus is on building operating models that enable faster and more aligned decisions across commercial, supply, and finance functions.”

aim10x Digital 2026 will address eight planning challenges, including agility, resilience, connected data and IT, post-game analysis, adaptive inventory management, and top-line growth.
