Everyone’s talking about AI. Few are actually producing more units because of it. In her keynote, Guidewheel CEO Lauren Dunford shows how leading manufacturers are using real‑time data and AI to slash downtime, boost first‑pass yield, and improve productivity.
Her presentation will review what works, what’s hype, and three practical FactoryOps moves you can start right away. Included in her discussion how teams drive adoption of AI by focusing on real needs and continuous improvement, practical ways AI is streamlining operations, optimizing supply chains, and boosting efficiency — while supporting regulatory compliance and sustainability goals, a real-world case study focusing on how Johnson & Johnson leverages AI in practical ways to drive fast, quantifiable improvements in uptime and efficiency, and a proven, step‑by‑step playbook to make AI pay off in your operations.
Stanford-incubated and backed by Greycroft, Breakthrough Energy Ventures, and BlackRock and Temasek's Decarbonization Partners fund, Guidewheel emerged from Lauren's supply chain background, including a Fulbright scholarship and five years at Revolution Foods' Oakland production facility.
