9:00 AM DATA FOUNDATION - FIX YOUR DATA, FUEL YOUR AI: BUILDING AN ENTERPRISE DATA BACKBONE FOR REAL AI VALUE

AI won't fix broken data. In fact, it amplifies every inconsistency, duplication and gap in your enterprise landscape. This workshop walks through a real enterprise journey of moving from fragmented, legacy data and one-off AI prototypes to a governed, master-data-driven foundation that can actually scale AI across markets, clients and functions. 
• Design an enterprise data model and stand up effective master data management (MDM) to clean, standardize and govern data at source
• Integrate legacy and global platforms into a phased, dual-process model (as-is vs. to-be) that supports future AI use cases without "big bang" disruption
• Connect data strategy to AI strategy, so AI initiatives are built on trustworthy data and measured on real business outcomes 
• Embed governance and change management into data transformation, reducing anxiety around AI and driving adoption
