The Big Technology Guide To: Enterprise AI

Big Technology's first guide to enterprise AI surveys the market opportunity, the major labs (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) and cloud players, the layers of the enterprise AI stack, build-versus-buy decisions, data and harness needs, and governance gaps. It cites Gartner findings that only 13% of CIOs report significant value from AI and that 71% of organizations expect to deploy agents within a year while just 21% have agentic governance in place, alongside Anthropic's growth from 1,500 to 11,900 customers paying over $100,000 per year between December 2025 and June 2026. It concludes that closing the "capability overhang" will depend on data practices, process redesign, and cultural readiness.
