Agenda


Coming Soon

The CDAO Executive Summit agendas are driven by the mission-critical priorities identified among the community. Each agenda is uniquely crafted By CDAOs, For CDAOs™, and will be available closer to the gathering. All topics and sessions will be inspired by the following themes.

Scaling AI and Establishing Value

CDAOs are shifting their focus from small-scale AI use cases to implementing solutions that deliver value across the entire enterprise. By strategically aligning AI solutions with core business objectives, CDAOs can establish ROI, improve operational efficiencies, foster innovation, and achieve measurable results.

Developing a Data-Driven Culture From the Top

Effectively managing the human and cultural aspects of technology transformation is a crucial, yet often underestimated, component in delivery of  D&A initiatives. Leading CDAOs are prioritizing the development of leadership skills, talent management, and strengthening trusted relationships with executive peers to ensure their initiatives are utilized and impactful.

Ensuring Trust and Reliability in Data for AI Initiatives

Trust and reliability in data are fundamental to the success of AI and D&A initiatives. CDAOs must establish strong data governance and quality practices to instill confidence in data assets. By ensuring data integrity and trustworthiness, CDAOs boost the adoption of AI technologies, driving innovation and growth in an increasingly data-centric environment.
