Time: 9:00 a.m. PT / 12:00 p.m. ET
Data governance has always been a journey, but the rise of AI and the proliferation of diverse data types have made that journey significantly more complex. Today’s organizations must govern structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data across hybrid environments while ensuring quality, privacy, and compliance at scale. At the same time, they face increasing pressure to enable trusted, enterprise-wide access to data that fuels advanced analytics and AI initiatives.
In this special webinar, Fern Halper, Ph.D., VP of Research at TDWI, will share findings from TDWI’s research on the state of data governance. The webinar will explore current governance support across organizations, key processes and organizational structures, the adoption of enabling technologies (including AI-assisted governance tools), and emerging best practices.
Fern will be joined by experts from leading vendor organizations to provide additional perspectives on how technologies and strategies are evolving to meet today’s governance challenges. As a special bonus, attendees will receive a brief snapshot report after the webinar, including TDWI research findings and insights raised during the expert panel discussion.
