INTRANET BOOTCAMP

February 25, 2026, 11 AM - 2 PM EST
AI doesn’t fix a broken intranet. It amplifies it. As AI mediates how employees get information and make decisions, the modern intranet can't just be a place for news. It becomes a verified source of truth and an experience anchor for the organization.

Through expert perspectives, real-world case studies, and hands-on learning, Intranet Bootcamp delivers a blueprint for digital workplace leaders managing and scaling intranets in the age of AI.

Built for Everyone: The Modern Intranet in the Age of AI
AI doesn’t fix a broken intranet. It amplifies it.

As we look toward 2026, organizations face a paradox: AI promises instant answers, but it requires a structured foundation to function.
Without verified data and clear governance, AI simply generates noise faster.

In this session, Frank Wolf analyzes the architectural shift required to move the intranet from a static repository to a verified source of truth. He will break down the specific requirements for an intranet that serves the entire workforce—from the frontline to the boardroom—ensuring that your digital employee experience is ready for the demands of the years ahead.

Key Takeaways:
  • The Data Foundation: How to structure content so it powers reliable AI answers rather than hallucinations
  • The Reach Logic: Practical approaches to scaling personalization for deskless and frontline roles without creating administrative chaos
  • The Strategic Necessity of Governance: Why the operational model must shift from policing content to enabling culture

From cross-functional governance and clear ownership to smart integrations and responsible use of AI, the panel will explore what it takes to build intranets that actually improve how employees experience work in today’s fragmented digital workplace.
