Welcome to a new work day. The enterprise of the future won’t just use AI – they’ll team up with it. Powered by people and AI agents working harmoniously together, they’ll combine human judgement and creativity with always‑on intelligence, speed and scale. And what's driving it all? Sana – our new superintelligence for work. Join us at Workday Elevate Hong Kong to see it in action.
What is Workday Elevate®
and what’s new?
Workday Elevate is where leaders come together to reimagine how organisations work, grow and lead in a changing world. From strategy to execution, you’ll explore innovative new ways to align your people, processes and technology for lasting impact.
This year, we’ll focus on how to move beyond isolated AI pilots to deploying AI at enterprise scale. So you can achieve real, measurable outcomes on your AI investments.
Why join us?
Learn what other forward-thinking leaders are doing to lead in the AI era and leave with practical strategies you can implement right away to close the gap between your organisation and theirs.
Turn AI into a teammate, not a threat
How can HR leaders make work more human and purposeful, even as it becomes increasingly AI‑powered? Hear from our experts as they share how to successfully route repetitive questions and tasks to your AI agents. So your people can focus on growth, mobility and impact.
Go from reporting the past to shaping the future
With Sana, our superintelligence for work – finance leaders can now move beyond static reports to real-time insight and action by using AI agents to surface risks, opportunities and scenarios ahead of time to proactively steer the business forward – not just close the books.
Build the guardrails for superintelligence
Today's IT leaders are no longer expected to just adopt AI but to orchestrate it too. Workday provides secure enterprise guardrails for every agent, while Sana connects and governs AI across your IT stack, allowing you to accelerate innovation with superintelligence without compromising on security.
New to Workday?
You’re in the right place.
Workday Elevate is where we'll demonstrate the real-world impact our AI can have on your organisation.
Get inspired as you learn how we're helping organisations like yours bring their HR, finance and IT together on one trusted AI platform to work smarter, not harder. You'll get to witness Sana: our superintelligence for work, in action and see why it's key to building the enterprise of the future.
