When a leading global commodity trading company sought to accelerate its AI transformation, it turned to Artefact to turn potential into measurable performance. The goal was to make generative AI a daily productivity tool across departments while ensuring robust governance, compliance, and lasting cultural change.

Every decade or so, the way companies organize themselves quietly changes – not through grand announcements, but through a series of accumulated decisions that suddenly reveal a new pattern. We saw it with digital transformation in the 2000s, when data and connectivity became the fabric of the modern enterprise.
