Reply launches AI-powered immersive room, debuting with six-act fine dining show AQUA in Turin

Reply has launched Reply Immersive Experience, a multisensory smart room that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and immersive technologies to let audiences explore products and take part in unfolding stories. Images, sound and lighting change in real time as people interact. An AI system coordinates 360° wall projections, spatial audio and lighting. Participants can use voice commands to shape scenarios. The same setup can serve product presentations, retail and design configuration, events and performances. Infinity Reply built the room at Reply House, the group's new Turin headquarters. Its first format, AQUA by Christian Mandura, debuts on October 21, 2026 at the Buonissima event in Turin. AQUA is a six-act performance combining fine dining, AI and storytelling.

Reply launches Symbiosis, an AI-driven operating model linking strategy to delivery

Reply, the Turin-based consultancy, has introduced Symbiosis, an AI-driven operating model for enterprises that use generative AI and agentic systems in their operations. A supporting platform links strategy, portfolio management and execution, so companies can tie priorities and investment to measurable business outcomes. Strategic goals become "Intents": defined business problems, each with a target, owner, boundaries and timeframe. Small teams of people and AI agents, called Cells, test solutions in short cycles, and the results guide decisions to continue, redirect or stop an initiative. A shared intelligence layer, the Learning Mesh, captures knowledge from daily operations and feeds it back into strategy. Reply is applying the model in offshore energy, healthcare with an NHS Trust, and industrial machinery. The model is openly available for organisations to read, adopt and adapt.

Logistics Reply launches LEA AI Agent Authority Model for governed warehouse AI deployment

Logistics Reply has launched the LEA AI Agent Authority Model, a framework for deploying AI agents in warehouse operations with appropriate levels of authority rather than maximum autonomy. The model combines four stages of organisational AI maturity with five authority levels: Inform, Recommend, Act, Coordinate and Governed Autonomy. To support the framework, LEA Dynamic Intelligence provides pre-built agents and an agent builder for warehouse tasks. Five new pre-built agents became available on 5 October 2026, addressing stock availability, labour distribution, inventory classification, dock scheduling and delay detection. The system enables organisations to determine suitable authority levels for AI agents based on use case, context and risk, with the ability to extend authority as operational evidence develops. Logistics Reply is a Reply group company specialising in supply chain execution and warehouse management solutions.
