How Not to Influence the Business: Why Good Data & AI Initiatives Still Fail

​Many Data & AI initiatives don't fail because of the technology.

​They fail because the business never truly gets behind them.

​You can have a clear strategy, a strong team and the right tools in place, but without stakeholder buy-in, executive sponsorship and organisational adoption, even the best ideas can struggle to gain traction.

​At this event, we'll bring together senior Data, AI and Technology leaders to discuss what really separates successful programmes from those that lose momentum.

​We'll explore:

• ​Securing executive buy-in and funding

• ​Aligning Data & AI initiatives to business outcomes

• ​Building trust across the organisation

• ​Driving adoption beyond the technology function

• ​Balancing short-term wins with long-term transformation

• ​Lessons learned from programmes that succeeded... and those that didn't

​Expect an honest discussion focused on real-world experiences rather than theory.

​Whether you're leading a data transformation, scaling AI initiatives, or looking to increase the impact of your function, this session is designed to provide practical insights from leaders who have been there and done it.

​One of the questions we'll be putting to the panel:

​"What's the fastest way to kill a good Data or AI initiative?"
