An Industry Value Chain is a visual representation of the series of steps an organization in a specific industry takes to deliver a product or service to the market. It captures the main business functions and processes that are involved in delivering the end product or service, illustrating how each step adds value and contributes to a Competitive Advantage. It often encompasses both primary and support activities.
Effective AI strategies require orchestration across the entire value chain—combining high-quality data, scalable models, robust infrastructure, and continuous learning.

This PPT presentation dives deeper into each of these activities, highlighting key elements.
The AI Value Chain spans from data acquisition to deployment and monitoring, forming the core intelligence layer that powers automation, personalization, and prediction across every industry. AI is both a standalone industry and a horizontal enabler, transforming functions such as Supply Chain, Customer Experience, Finance, and R&D in sectors from Healthcare to Manufacturing.
The AI ecosystem increasingly depends on synergistic integration with other emerging technologies like IoT, Cloud Computing, Edge Devices, and Blockchain. As regulatory pressure mounts, value chain coordination ensures AI remains explainable, secure, and compliant without compromising innovation or agility.
This presentation also discusses Artificial Intelligence Value Chain Analysis, highlighting a multitude of key considerations and potential insights to pay attention to. We further discuss the significant impact of other emergent Digital Transformation technologies on the Artificial Intelligence industry.
