This special evening is hosted by the Governing Body to launch the following day's events. Join us for an evening of peer networking, food, and drinks at Fang Restaurant. 

Poor data quality is holding back data and analytics leaders from delivering on the promise of business value through their D&A investments. Moving forward with a continuous data quality improvement program is not a question of why — but how. In this session, Collibra's Data Quality Principal as he runs you through tips and tricks for dealing with data quality. 

Join this storytelling session to explore:

• Bad business decisions due to incomplete or bad data
• Mountains of rules that do not scale and are impossible to manage
• Failure to resolve data quality problems, even when they are identified

Data observability is the natural evolution of the data quality movement and a strategic approach can accelerate an organization’s ability to resolve data issues quickly. How can CDOs integrate activities and technologies into the end-to-end data operations workflow to enhance visibility and propel the business forward?

Join this interactive boardroom to discuss:

• The mix of activities and technologies that create greater data observability
• Best practices of incident management applied to data operations
• Building end-to-end visibility to accelerate incident response

Cultivating a data-driven culture is one of the most prevalent challenges facing data and analytic leaders today. The gap between having the data and using it lies within data governance. Join Cara Dailey, EVP - Chief Data Officer of LPL Financial as she shares her path in building a strong data governance foundation to support data-driven decisions with stewardship, data quality, and AI-driven automation. 

Join this session as we discuss:

• Cultivating a council of engaged data leaders
• Establishing policies and processes that are collaborative and support data stewardship
• Supporting a data-driven culture focused on fueling business value

Sharing data not only creates new opportunities, it can lend to new business models. As shared data becomes more prevalent, data and analytics leaders are challenged to select the right technologies to keep data secure and trustworthy.

Join this session to learn how to:

• Deliver real-time analytics for faster decision-making
• Cultivate collaboration across the enterprise, tearing down silos
• Invest in technology that fosters innovative business models and ecosystems

Successful organizations use data to derive business value. With enterprise growth and complexity, data silos are a natural consequence. Data fabric architecture, often misunderstood as competing with data mesh, can help to create and manage data products spanning disparate systems. For data and analytics leaders like Arun, implementing a data fabric architecture and auto-generated data products can help scale data initiatives at the speed of business.

Join this session to discover how to:

• Break data silos with data products
• Empower teams to create data products with no-code
• Automate workflows and pipeline across silos

Today, CDOs are focused on connecting your organizations knowledge workers with data they can rely on to make decisions. But before you can enable self-service to scale your program, you need to first ensure that data can be trusted.

Join this roundtable session to discuss:

• Developing a foundation of trusted data through governance
• Supporting a data-driven culture and improve data literacy
• Creating a data sharing program through a self-service marketplace
