About

With so much going on and technology still evolving with respect to data and AI, it’s very easy to lose sight of what you’re trying to build and how it should fit together to drive value in your business. Companies need to be able to incrementally build data products, business intelligence, machine learning models, and AI agents and bring them together to be used in the context of specific tasks in different processes across the enterprise to drive value.

In this keynote presentation, veteran independent IT industry analyst and consultant in data and AI, Mike Ferguson walks through what needs to be done to build an artificially intelligent enterprise. Participants will gain insights into the strategic, technical, and organisational requirements for harnessing data and AI to transform business operations and deliver measurable value.
