Oracle AI World 2025 kicked off with renewed energy this year in Las Vegas, marking a transformative moment in enterprise technology. This inaugural event (formerly known as Oracle CloudWorld) underscored Oracle’s commitment to integrating AI across its product suite, empowering businesses to innovate and thrive in the AI era.
The four-day event was packed with reveals and keynotes that will define the next 12 months in tech. And as Oracle CEO, Mike Sicilia, put it, “We’re not just experiencing the world of AI, we’re shaping it.”
Let’s take a look at the main announcements.
A whole new world
The rename reflects the pivotal role AI now has in Oracle’s strategy. As Jennifer Smith, senior vice president of marketing services, said, “AI technologies, delivered from the cloud, are becoming the biggest differentiator for business success.” This event showcased Oracle’s dedication to embedding AI into every layer of its technology stack, from data platforms to cloud infrastructure and applications. Larry Ellison, chairman of the board and CTO of Oracle, took us deeper into the potential and shared his vision for our AI future.
