March 13, 2026 by Jeff Balmeo Lunch & Learn From Control Towers to AI Orchestration: The NeuroTower Executive Lunch & Learn Thursday, April 23rd • 9:00am - 2:30pm EDT Malvern, PA Register Today In partnership with: Space is Limited—Don't Miss out on this Event! Manufacturers have invested heavily in control towers to improve visibility across supply chain, production, and logistics. However, most organizations still rely on humans to interpret data and coordinate responses across disconnected systems. This event will introduce NeuroTower, an AI-powered operational command center designed for the modern manufacturing enterprise. The session will explore how manufacturers can evolve from passive visibility tools to AI-driven operational orchestration that enables faster decision making, improved resilience, and greater operational efficiency. Attendees will learn how AI, Microsoft Fabric, Azure, and Databricks can power the next generation of operational platforms and how organizations are beginning to deploy these capabilities today. The event will feature speakers from Microsoft and IBM along with Manufacturing and Mobility industry customers sharing perspectives on operational transformation and AI adoption.
