About the Event

The AI hype is real – and so are the failures.

Many companies in the DACH region have launched ambitious AI initiatives… only to find themselves stuck in the early stages. Not because the technology isn’t ready – but because the data isn’t: It’s stuck in silos; It’s messy, unstructured, or incomplete; It lacks context, quality, and governance.

In this interactive one-hour online session, we bring together four leaders from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland to explore how CIOs and CDOs are redefining data readiness and building the foundations for successful AI transformation in their organisations.

Our core questions for discussion:

• Why do AI projects stall before delivering real impact – and what can CIO/CDOs do differently?
• How can you build AI on legacy data landscapes without ripping everything apart?
• How do you apply AI in hybrid environments – where cloud, on-prem, and shadow systems coexist?
• How can organisations create unified access to siloed data without full migration or duplication?
• How can fast and secure data delivery be achieved while still meeting governance and security requirements?
• How do you scale from AI PoCs to real business impact across the organisation?

*This event is exclusive to CIOs, CDOs, IT & digital leaders from user organizations and CIONET DACH members.
