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.

Customers today expect more - more personalisation, more convenience, more transparency. But delivering on those expectations isn't just about algorithms and automation. It starts with building a culture where everyone, from the frontline to the boardroom, understands the power of data. In this panel, four experts from Boots, Compare the Market, E.ON Next and EDF Energy share how their organisations are embedding data-driven mindsets to create better experiences for millions of customers every day. Whether you're driving customer experience, leading transformation or trying to connect data initiatives to real-world impact, this session will give you actionable insights to take back to your team.
