Darmstadt – October 29, 2026 -- Only 30% of German companies have governance structures suited to agentic AI, according to figures cited by Gregor von Jagow, Senior Director and Country Manager Germany at Red Hat. He argues that open technology, not new vendor dependencies, is the route out of the pilot phase.

Von Jagow says building AI agents is no longer the main hurdle. The challenge is deploying them productively: integrating them reliably into existing business processes, limiting their access to defined areas and meeting security requirements.
