| As CDOs take on a greater responsibility in shaping enterprise-wide data strategy, the pressure to deliver measurable business value through artificial intelligence (AI), governance and analytics continues to intensify. But identifying high-impact use cases, and how to scale them, remains a challenge.
This exclusive virtual roundtable brings together CDOs from EMEA and LATAM for a peer-led conversation on advancing next-gen data strategies. You’ll explore how data leaders are navigating emerging AI capabilities, tightening regulations and rising expectations around data-driven experiences.

- Explore the practical application of generative and agentic AI, including use cases that drive business outcomes and how to measure their impact
- Learn how leading organisations are evolving their data governance models to keep pace with regulatory demands while enabling responsible data use at scale
