00:00:00.333 --> 00:00:02.377
Carey, tell me what you think makes

00:00:02.377 --> 00:00:04.212
for a successful partnership.

00:00:04.212 --> 00:00:05.255
We are so grateful

00:00:05.255 --> 00:00:08.508
for the successful partnership
BCG has with Amazon.

00:00:08.508 --> 00:00:10.844
Really, it's about two
teams coming together

00:00:10.844 --> 00:00:13.972
to do more together than
they could do individually

00:00:13.972 --> 00:00:17.475
in service of the shared
outcomes for our clients.

00:00:17.475 --> 00:00:20.812
Partnerships have really evolved
in the last couple of years

00:00:20.812 --> 00:00:22.188
because of AI.

00:00:22.188 --> 00:00:25.567
So it used to be that BCG was
in there setting the strategy,

00:00:25.567 --> 00:00:28.987
and technology would come
alongside and enable that.

00:00:28.987 --> 00:00:32.782
Now, with AI, technology is
actually driving that strategy,

00:00:32.782 --> 00:00:36.077
and so it's imperative that AWS and BCG,

00:00:36.077 --> 00:00:37.746
or any of the tech partners,

00:00:37.746 --> 00:00:39.664
are side-by-side with us helping

00:00:39.664 --> 00:00:42.000
to define and set that vision,

00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:44.753
align the executives, and
help them move forward.

00:00:44.753 --> 00:00:47.881
You mentioned outcomes and impact.

00:00:47.881 --> 00:00:50.925
What, for you, defines impact?

00:00:50.925 --> 00:00:54.763
We're helping clients navigate
two horizons right now.

00:00:54.763 --> 00:00:57.599
On the one hand, you have GenAI use cases,

00:00:57.599 --> 00:00:59.601
people are pruning their portfolios,

00:00:59.601 --> 00:01:02.520
thinking about what to
scale technologically,

00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:05.023
but also from a change
management perspective.

00:01:05.023 --> 00:01:07.275
And just as we're getting going with that,

00:01:07.275 --> 00:01:10.278
you're seeing agentic AI on the frontier

00:01:10.278 --> 00:01:11.738
asking our same clients

00:01:11.738 --> 00:01:15.200
to fundamentally rethink
their people and processes.

00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:18.244
Helping them navigate
across those two dimensions

00:01:18.244 --> 00:01:20.455
is really providing outsized value.

00:01:20.455 --> 00:01:22.874
And with so much
happening in the AI world,

00:01:22.874 --> 00:01:24.918
what are some of the things
that you find exciting?

00:01:24.918 --> 00:01:27.962
When technology is moving this quickly,

00:01:27.962 --> 00:01:30.465
it's a question of how fast can you move,

00:01:30.465 --> 00:01:31.841
but it's not only that.

00:01:31.841 --> 00:01:34.761
It's how do you create value and for whom?

00:01:34.761 --> 00:01:37.931
For the customers, for the
employees, for the shareholders,

00:01:37.931 --> 00:01:39.224
for the communities.

00:01:39.224 --> 00:01:42.185
That answer will be different
for each of our clients

00:01:42.185 --> 00:01:44.729
and helping them think
through who they wanna be

00:01:44.729 --> 00:01:46.481
and how they wanna show up in light of

00:01:46.481 --> 00:01:48.900
that is a very exciting part of the work.

00:01:48.900 --> 00:01:51.444
I appreciate your time.
Yes, thank you, Vikas.
