The market is shifting fast, and the calls you make now will shape your data for years. We cover:

1. Where data architecture is heading

2. What changes when AI stops assisting and starts acting

3. How data access is evolving, and what that demands of trust and security

4. How buying and hiring are shifting with it
   

Delivered by Ometis' Paul Greenhead, Client Services Director, and Alex Walker, Operations Director.

How to start using AI on your data

How to go from "AI straight onto your data" to answers you can trust, in four layers and in the right order.

Hosted by Nick Baker, Technical Director at Ometis

Getting AI-Ready, One Step at a Time

AI is on every board's agenda, but real value starts with getting the foundations right. Adi shares how Center Parcs is modernising its approach to analytics, shifting the team's focus from building dashboards to delivering insight, and identifying new opportunities for the business to explore.

Presented by Adi Clowes, Business Intelligence Director at Center Parcs 

Your data was built to run yesterday’s business. Is it ready to power it tomorrow?
 
Much of the data businesses rely on was collected for a different purpose, across disconnected systems and teams - a problem as automation and AI raise the stakes on data quality. Through practical examples, we'll explore how to get more from the data you already have, so you can trust it, improve it, and connect it for smarter automation and better decisions.

Delivered by Doug King, Head of Partnerships & Alliances at Experian

Building and retaining trust in all things AI

As Agents spread through the workplace, their success depends on adoption, and adoption depends on value: new insights, productivity, and speed. Value builds trust, which is easily lost when an answer is confidently wrong. Qlik delivers agile Agent deployment alongside explainable, trusted output - built on high-quality data and sound business metrics.

Delivered by Kyle Jourdan, Head of AI/ML Practice at Qlik

Ometis Innovation Lab 

AI promises a lot, but most organisations don't know where to start.
