Fireside Chat with Mark Moffat, CEO of IFS | RAISE Summit 2026

Mark Moffat, Thomas Koehrer

IFS, under the leadership of CEO Mark Moffat, distinguishes itself in capital-intensive sectors like utilities and aerospace by deploying "forward-deployed engineering" to solve complex physical value chain challenges rather than merely offering software features. This approach has yielded a 96% gross retention rate and a notable 38% reduction in downtime for clients such as Grant Distillery, while simultaneously underpinning 100% of US commercial aviation flights through a hybrid model of probabilistic optimization and deterministic safety. To ensure resilience against geopolitical shifts, the company further secures its position with a sovereign AI architecture that leverages edge-deployed, agnostic models across its global supply chain.
