Program
Executive AI Roundtables
A private environment for candid exchange.
The Executive AI Roundtables bring senior data, analytics and AI leaders together to cut through the hype and discuss how AI is changing established organizations.
The sessions are practitioner-led and focused on what peers are actually planning, building and learning — from AI strategy and business value to adoption, governance, data foundations, agentic AI, talent and operating models.
The value is in comparing notes on common challenges, what’s working, what isn’t, and what leaders should be paying attention to next.
