Pure Signal | A Recap from AWS re:Invent 2025 with Phil Lockhart

Credera is excited to announce the release of a new Pure Signal episode: "A Recap from AWS re:Invent 2025 with Phil Lockhart."

On this episode

The Pure Signal team has been busy this week in Las Vegas at AWS re:Invent 2025, and today they’re back to wrap it all up with a recap and reflection. Kevin Erickson and Ryan Medellin are joined by Credera’s Global Chief Digital Officer, Phil Lockhart to talk about what they loved from the event and how it sets us all up for 2026.

This episode unpacks a week of conversations with clients, partners, and AWS leaders from executive roundtables to hallway strategy sessions. The takeaway? Tech is only as transformative as the people, culture, and processes built around it. This episode explores the shift from tools to outcomes: how AI is accelerating process velocity, why use cases matter more than capabilities, and how to grow the next generation of talent in an environment moving faster than ever.

Whether you're building cloud strategy, leading AI transformation, or just trying to make better decisions faster, this is a grounded look at how to lead with clarity in an increasingly complex tech landscape.

Thanks to everyone who made it out to AWS re:Invent 2025 and for those behind the scenes making it one to remember.
