For decades, business leaders have made decisions through more traditional means, based on a handful of factors or a gut feeling. But in the age of big data and generative AI, organizations are shifting strategies. According to a recent Gartner webinar, 45% of organizations have seen an increase in AI investment since ChatGPT was released. But to use these tools effectively, data and analytics leaders must democratize data; upskilling the workforce to be data-literate, establishing a framework of connected governance and prototyping use cases that advance mission-critical priorities.

In this interactive conversation, CDAOs will discuss their role in proactively staying ahead of the curve with D&A and boosting ROI.

Topic 1: Amending data strategy to incorporate generative AI

  • Has your data strategy changed with the explosion of generative AI? 
  • Is there organizational trust in your data and a standard of quality? 
  • What use cases for generative AI are you working on or have you identified?

Topic 2: Establishing a data-literate culture through data democratization

  • Is your organization currently using data effectively?
  • Is there a level of data fluency that you're working to meet or increase? 
  • Have you democratized data and enabled self-service reports? 

6:45pm - 7:15pm  Networking Break

7:15pm - 8:30pm  Summary Discussion & Dinner

8:30pm - 9:30pm  Social Hour
