The Graph AI ecosystem made a major leap in 2025, shifting from “experimental add-on” to the backbone of reliable enterprise AI. As organizations begin scaling real use cases, one thing has become clear: AI without semantics, structure, and context will not survive in production.

On December 9, join Sumit Pal, Strategic Technology Director at Graphwise, Brandon Richards, Graph Technologies & AI Thought Leader for a practical session “Graph COE: Preparing for next generation AI”. We’ll walk through the realities of today’s AI landscape and the architectural patterns that are winning, then dive into the Graphwise Platform and the role of a Graph Center of Excellence (COE).

This session will cover: ⊹ GraphRAG Accuracy Breakthroughs: how graph-grounded retrieval eliminates ambiguity, enforces structure, and delivers verifiable, source-linked answers ⊹ Semantic Automation: how to generate accurate domain models and ontologies in under an hour ⊹ COE Foundations: how a reusable semantic layer reduces cost, eliminates the Bad Data Tax, and supports every downstream AI use case ⊹ Real-World Case Study: Avalara: how they achieved 100% precision mapping using DOM GraphRAG

If your AI initiatives need reliability, explainability, and production-grade accuracy, this webinar is built for you.

🌟 Session Overview 🌟

Session Name: Building Knowledge Graphs Speaker: Sumit Pal Session Description: Knowledge graphs are all around us, and we use them every day. Many emerging data management products, such as Data Catalogs/Fabric and MDM products, leverage knowledge graphs as their engines. Building a knowledge graph is not a one-off engineering project. It requires collaboration between functional domain experts, data engineers, data modelers, and key sponsors. It also encompasses technology, strategy, and organizational aspects; focusing solely on technology increases the risk of a knowledge graph's failure.

Knowledge graphs are effective tools for capturing and structuring large amounts of structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data. As such, they are becoming the backbone of various systems, including semantic search engines, recommendation systems, conversational bots, and data fabric.

This session guides data and analytics professionals to demonstrate the value of knowledge graphs and how to build semantic applications.
