Every organisation experimenting with AI hits the same wall: models work in isolation, but struggle to deliver value when they meet the complexity of real business operations. This panel brings together data leaders who are solving that problem — grounding AI in proprietary business context, building governance and control frameworks that enable rather than block, sustaining the economics as usage scales, and preserving flexibility as the technology landscape shifts. The panellists will share candid perspectives on what's working, what's failed, and how they're building the organisational muscle and data foundations to turn AI pilots into trusted, scalable enterprise capabilities.
