FinOps for the Future: Cloud ROI, Savings & Strategy

Exclusive executive roundtable dinner in Bangalore

12th September 2025
7:00 PM – 9:30 PM IST

WHAT WE WILL DISCUSS

Join this invite-only roundtable discussion and dinner session with senior Cloud, FinOps and Infrastructure leaders from some of India’s leading organizations.

Investments in AI and cloud are rising but without a clear cost management framework, cloud complexity may outweigh the value delivered.

With growing cloud usage across platforms and increasing demand from AI-driven initiatives, cloud and infrastructure leaders are under pressure to manage spend without slowing down performance. Traditional cost-cutting approaches can’t keep up with the speed and scale of today’s cloud operations. Organizations need FinOps strategies that provide real-time visibility, accurate forecasting, and financial accountability, ensuring every cloud investment delivers measurable value.

This invite-only roundtable will bring together senior business leaders to explore how to evolve beyond basic cost optimization towards real-time accountability, intelligent forecasting, and scalable automation that supports innovation across the business.

Key Discussion Points:

  • 1. How do you balance cost optimization and innovation?
    What’s working to eliminate cloud waste while ensuring critical workloads including AI training and inference remain fully supported?
  • 2. How are teams improving forecasting and budget planning?
    What models and practices are helping leaders predict cloud spend more accurately, allocate budgets effectively and avoid overspending?
  • 3. How are showback and chargeback models driving accountability?
    How are cost transparency mechanisms building a culture of ownership across engineering, finance and business units?
  • 4. What’s the role of automation in FinOps?
    How are organizations using real-time alerts, auto-scaling, and cloud-native tools to optimize spend and free up engineering capacity?

Seats at this invite-only Roundtable are extremely limited, so please register now to secure yours.
