The AI-Ready Enterprise Data, Economics and the New Intelligence Stack
Most enterprises have run AI pilots. Few have made them pay. Join Dallas data and AI leaders for an invite-only afternoon on what's working in production, and what it really costs.
Thursday, November 5 · 11:30 AM–6:00 PM
Why attend
Learn from people who've done it. Every speaker runs data, AI, finance or revenue at a real enterprise. No vendor pitches.
Get answers, not slides. Each talk is 10 minutes of point of view and 10 minutes of your questions.
Leave with numbers you can use. See where AI is paying off, where it isn't, and how one Fortune 100 firm cut AI costs by 70%.
Meet the right peers. A small, invite-only room of CIOs, CDOs, CFOs, investors and founders solving the same problems.
Speak freely. Chatham House rules, so nothing is attributed.

Learn how experienced Data & AI leaders are building trusted data foundations that AI can actually use.
2.What’s Next in AI
Which emerging AI capabilities are genuinely changing enterprise possibilities—and which are still hype?

Identify where AI is delivering measurable improvements in productivity, revenue, customer experience, software, and operations.
