The Future of Software Licensing: The Importance of an Optimal License Model in Divestitures
When a company spins off a business unit, the spotlight often shines on financials, operations, and IT infrastructure. Yet, hidden within the fine print of software contracts lies a strategic lever that can make or break the success of a divestiture: licensing. In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, where hybrid cloud, SaaS, and AI-driven platforms reign supreme, software licensing has transcended its role as a mere compliance checkbox. It has become a critical enabler of agility, innovation, and cost control. However, many organizations still underestimate the complexity and opportunity embedded in licensing decisions during a carve-out or spin-off.

Securing the Digital Frontier: Protecting Enterprises in a Hyperconnected World
At Avasant’s flagship Empowering Beyond Summit 2025, a dynamic panel discussion brought together cybersecurity leaders from academia, healthcare, government, and global technology firms to explore how enterprises can responsibly adopt artificial intelligence at scale. Moderated by Jay Weinstein, Distinguished Fellow at Avasant, the panel featured George Mansoor (Chief Security Officer, California State University), Alexandra Landeggar (Global Head of Cyber Strategy & Transformation, RTX), Manju Naglapur (SVP & General Manager, Unisys), and John Caruthers (Lead Director, BISO, CVS Health). Together, they unpacked the strategic and technical imperatives shaping AI adoption ranging from governance frameworks and privacy safeguards to post-quantum preparedness and the expanding role of cybersecurity in enabling innovation. As regulatory pressures mount and AI becomes more embedded in critical systems, cybersecurity is increasingly recognized not just as a defense mechanism, but as a foundational pillar for responsible, scalable transformation.
