BOSTON, May 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Tune in live Tuesday, May 5 at 8:30 a.m. ET as IBM (NYSE: IBM) CEO Arvind Krishna opens IBM Think 2026 and explains how AI is becoming the defining force in business, what it takes to lead, and how quantum computing is emerging as the next frontier.

Krishna will unveil his most comprehensive set of enterprise AI announcements to date, with new capabilities designed to help organizations move beyond pilots and put AI to work across the business.
