APGAR invites you to their event

What it takes to build an AI-ready Data Foundation

About this event

Your AI Strategy Has a Data Problem

Most organizations lack the enterprise data foundation needed to support their AI initiatives. Recent analyst research found that over 60% of organizations either do not have, or are unsure if they have, the right data management practices for AI.

Join Bruno Billy, Rahul Bakhshi and Ravit Jain for a practical discussion on what it takes to build a data foundation that can support AI, analytics, and enterprise operations at scale.

In this session, we’ll explore:

  • What belongs in a modern enterprise data foundation
  • Where organizations fall short, especially when AI ambition outpaces data readiness, ownership, and trust
  • What real-world implementations have taught us

Your AI strategy is only as strong as the data underneath it. Before you scale AI, fix the foundation.
