IFS, the leading provider of Industrial AI software announces its participation at LEAP 2026, taking place from 31 August–3 September 2026 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
IFS will demonstrate how Industrial AI creates value in work environments and supports organisations to move beyond experimentation and generic AI to achieve measurable outcomes in the real world. IFS is participating with its partner, Microsoft to showcase how the partnership enables customers to accelerate transformation on a secure and scalable technology foundation.
At the event, IFS will demonstrate how AI can understand the context of complex industrial operations, support better decisions and increasingly act across workflows, helping organisations improve productivity, resilience, asset performance and service delivery. This will be highlighted with the IFS solutions portfolio at LEAP and establish how IFS AI-powered enterprise software is led by IFS.ai and IFS Cloud.
Other key focus areas will be on IFS Loops and Industrial Agentic AI, Asset Lifecycle Management (ALM), Nexus Black – its strategic Industrial AI co-innovation program, IFS Zero an agentic emissions operating system, and, the breadth of IFS Cloud, spanning ERP, Enterprise Asset Management, Field Service Management, and Supply Chain capabilities.
Rahul Misra, Senior Vice President & Managing Director, MEA at IFS said, “At LEAP 2026, IFS will exhibit how Industrial AI can address real operational challenges, from improving asset performance and field service productivity to optimising planning, supply chains and complex project execution. Our participation with Microsoft further strengthens this proposition by demonstrating how the combination of IFS and Microsoft technologies can help organisations modernise operations, harness Industrial AI and accelerate measurable business outcomes. It is the perfect opportunity to engage with stakeholders that are shaping the next phase of Saudi Arabia’s digital and industrial transformation”.
Microsoft is a strategic technology partner to IFS, underpinning the IFS Cloud platform with secure, scalable, and industry‑ready cloud services. Together, IFS and Microsoft help regional customers accelerate digital transformation by combining IFS’s deep industry expertise with Microsoft Azure, data, and AI capabilities.
IFS’s participation at LEAP is relevant in Saudi Arabia, where large-scale industrial, infrastructure, energy and transformation programs are creating demand for technology that can move beyond digitalisation and deliver measurable improvements in operational execution. This brings into play IFS’s focus on asset-intensive industries where complex operations, critical assets, field work and service delivery are central to business performance.
Participating within the Microsoft Arabia Hub, IFS will have live demonstrations showing how IFS Industrial AI can move from insight to decision to execution across real-world operational scenarios. These include Nexus Black Resolve, IFS Asset Lifecycle Management and Field Service Management.
IFS representatives will also have speaking sessions at the Microsoft Theatre (Mini Theatre) within the Microsoft Arabia Hub during LEAP 2026:
- Suliman Gaouda, Regional VP, Industrial AI, IFS APJMEA will speak on ‘The AI That Runs the Physical Economy’ on September 1
- Hasan Sakr, Senior Presales Consultant, IFS will speak on ‘Asset Lifecycle Management for Enhanced Operational Efficiency’ on September 2
