Nimbus Ninety’s Digital Trends Report 2021 revealed that the number one digital initiative for business leaders in the next 6 months was to get more value out of their data. But reaching data nirvana is no mean feat: the pressure is on for digital leaders to modernise their infrastructure in order to build the foundations for AI-driven insights that can supercharge innovation.
Bring your most pressing challenges to our experts and hear our panel bust the biggest myths around modernisation, data maturity and AI-driven analytics. We will be dissecting common problem statements for each part of the maturity journey with our expert panels, as well as hearing industry success stories and how they got there.
One of the major barriers to getting value out of data is that many organisations don’t actually know the value of their data. It sits in pockets around the enterprise, inaccessible but with stacks of potential. This episode will investigate how to unlock value from your hidden data in order to drive benefits across the value chain and cultivate a culture of innovation.
