Data and AI are now a priority at board level in terms of value opportunity, but many organisations are still struggling to realise the benefits. In a world where tech debt is forefront of mind and there is a graveyard of forgotten proof of concepts, what do organisations really need to do to drive effective decision making from data and AI at scale?

Join Anush and Caro for a fireside chat as they debate key questions around balancing technology implementation, with user centred design and business change to enable effective decision making through data and AI. Work through what this means in terms of developing and executing on a data and AI strategy grounded in delivering real business value. Gain learnings from their experience working with leaders across the private equity market and how that has influenced a pragmatic approach to value lead implementation balancing need for short term impact with long term goals.

Anush and Caro will showcase real life examples and highlight practical recommendations to bring to life the reality that effective decision-making is, and always will be, a people and process challenge, enabled by tech.
