Global IT spending is surging, driven by the rapid rise of generative AI (GenAI). IT spending is on pace to surpass $7 trillion dollars in four years. By 2028, GenAI will account for over $1 trillion in spending, including new markets like AI models, specialized AI-managed services and AI-optimized IaaS. However, the journey to realizing AI's full potential is fraught with challenges. Many early-stage GenAI projects have faltered and declining AI expectations are driving CIOs to shift toward GenAI solutions delivered from technology partners in 2025. Join this complimentary invitation-only Gartner IT virtual briefing for investors as a Gartner expert delves into the emerging IT spending patterns in a languishing economic environment and the evolving GenAI landscape. Gain insight into the latest trends and forecasts that will shape IT budgets and investments in the coming year.
