Data has never been more important - or more discussed. But where do organizations really stand today?
Join the TAG Data Governance Society for a “State of Data Today” panel featuring experienced data leaders from across industries. This session will provide a candid look at the current landscape of data management and governance, focusing on what is working, what continues to challenge organizations, and where leaders are prioritizing their efforts.
While AI continues to dominate headlines, this discussion will focus on the foundational data capabilities that enable long-term success - whether AI is involved or not.
Topics will include:
• The current maturity of data governance across industries
• Common challenges in adoption, ownership, and accountability
• The gap between strategy and execution
• Where data and AI governance align - and where they diverge
• Key priorities shaping enterprise data over the next 12-24 months
