From Dashboards to Decisions: Restoring alignment, ownership, and confidence in enterprise reporting

Data availability keeps growing, but decision-making often feels slower. Every function builds its own dashboards, metrics multiply, and reports begin to contradict each other. What was meant to improve transparency now creates confusion. The problem is not access to data but alignment on interpretation. When information becomes noise, confidence in reporting collapses. People hesitate to act, functions challenge each other’s numbers, and trust in analytics erodes. The challenge lies in restoring clarity: deciding which metrics matter, who owns them, and how reporting connects back to action. Let’s discuss how to simplify information flows, define consistent metrics, and reconnect dashboards with decision-making. How ownership, cadence, and shared understanding bring alignment back. A closed conversation on rebuilding confidence in data, where clarity replaces overload and information once again supports action.

Man Overboard: A VIP Evening on the Human and Digital Anatomy of a Crisis

In the middle of the night, 200 miles from the coast, the alarm sounds. The "Man Overboard" cry isn't just about a person in the water; it’s the ultimate test of a crew’s preparation, psychological grit, and split-second communication. For the modern European CIO, the "Man Overboard" moment happens in the data centre, the boardroom, or the headlines. When the system fails, the pressure doesn't just sit on the servers; it sits on you. Join CIONET for an exclusive VIP evening at the coast, a deep dive into the Human and Digital Anatomy of a Crisis. We will explore why some leaders thrive under the crushing weight of a "Black Swan" event while others capsize, and how data serves as the steady keel that keeps the ship upright.

AI Governance at Scale: Defining boundaries, ownership, and accountability for AI at scale

AI started small: a few pilots, some dashboards, a couple of chatbots. But then it spread, quickly. Now every department wants a model, every vendor adds “AI-powered” to their pitch, and every regulator is asking about risk and transparency. Governance suddenly went from a nice idea to a full-time job. Scaling governance is harder than launching AI. Policies look great on slides, but in practice, ownership blurs and enforcement stalls. Central control slows things down, while local freedom invites risk. Everyone agrees AI should be safe and ethical, but no one agrees on who signs off when something goes wrong, all leading to AIs living as permanent PoCs. So how do you scale oversight without creating bureaucracy? How do you distribute responsibility between IT, business, and compliance? And what controls actually hold up when AI keeps changing after deployment? Let’s explore how organisations make governance part of daily operations, not an afterthought. A closed conversation for those trying to keep AI credible, compliant, and under control while it spreads across the enterprise.

Validating Employment Candidate Expertise and Reputation at Inserm

Inserm relies on external experts to assess job candidates' expertise. This manual process is time-consuming and lacks transparency. To streamline recruitment and enhance efficiency, Inserm seeks an automated solution to verify candidate expertise.

CUSTOMER

Inserm (French National Institute of Health and Medical Research) has historically been the only public research institute in France dedicated to biological and medical research and human health. It employs nearly 13,000 researchers, engineers and technicians across more than 300 research laboratories.

CHALLENGE

To evaluate the quality of job candidates, Inserm coordinates with up to five external experts to analyze candidates based on their achievements and descriptions of their field of expertise. To shorten the recruitment process and increase transparency, Inserm sought an automated solution to verify the
expertise of their candidates.

SOLUTION

Expert.ai technology enables Inserm to rapidly identify the top experts in their candidate pool by aggregating and analyzing published scientific articles and reports from hundreds of globally respected journals. The talent team simply enters a candidate or project name in the search field and activates the ‘Expert lens’ to view a full list of domain experts.
Behind the scenes, expert.ai evaluates a candidate’s level of expertise based on the reputation rating of the journals in which they have been published. Keywords associated with the candidate are also extracted which can help quickly verify areas of expertise. The system also presents publication metrics and collaboration networks so Inserm can identify both established opinion leaders as well as rising stars.

BENEFITS

- Reduced risk of cronyism in candidate selection via automated expert identification
- Increased search productivity with a user-friendly interface
- Highly reliable, quantifiable and complete results enable informed decision-making

"Expert.ai technology generates highly relevant expert profiles through a global overview including keywords related to experts, the list of contributed journals, production trends, close collaborators as well as contact information."
