Data and IT Leaders Dinner Roundtable
Designing the Data Fabric: Where to Start, What to Standardise, and What to Let Evolve
TOPIC
SAP and The Ortus Club are bringing together senior data, architecture, and governance leaders from enterprise organisations across APAC for an in-person executive roundtable on Designing the Data Fabric: Where to Start, What to Standardise, and What to Let Evolve.
In this session, participants will explore how organisations are making early, high-impact decisions when designing data fabric architectures, particularly as they prepare for artificial intelligence at scale. The session will focus on:
Where to begin when defining a data fabric roadmap
What standards must be centralised versus where domain-level flexibility matters
How to establish shared semantics, trust, and governance without constraining innovation
This event creates a confidential, peer-based environment where leaders can share experiences, compare approaches, and gain new perspectives on designing data fabric foundations that balance architectural consistency, domain autonomy, and readiness for agentic AI.
WHO IS ATTENDING?
Join senior leaders responsible for shaping data architecture and governance decisions that enable scalable, trusted AI outcomes.
Participants typically include senior data and analytics leaders, enterprise and architecture executives, governance and data quality leaders, and other decision-makers defining how data platforms evolve across the organisation.
