About the event

AI ambition is rising quickly. In many organisations, data readiness is not keeping pace.

Join SECTION6 and IBM for a private breakfast for senior IT, data and AI leaders.

This session will examine where AI initiatives stall at the data layer, what AI-ready hybrid data actually requires, and how organisations can improve governance, access and optimisation across existing environments, without committing to a multi-year migration.

This is an executive discussion for leaders who need to make decisions now. We will look at where risk is building, which constraints are slowing progress, and how to create more optionality across a hybrid estate while AI expectations continue to rise.

You will leave with a clearer view of:

  • Where AI programmes most commonly slow down
  • What to prioritise first across hybrid data, governance, access, and control
  • How to improve readiness using what you already have
  • How to build AI-ready data, without the multi-year migration
  • Where platform, policy and operating choices are increasing cost or constraining progress
  • How to maintain greater sovereignty over sensitive data, workloads, and IP

Who should attend

This breakfast is designed for established and emerging technology leaders, and senior executives responsible for data and AI strategy, governance, and delivery.

Places are limited to keep the discussion senior, relevant and practical.
