Data in the AI Era: Connecting the dots
Technology Evolves. Principles Endure.
Join us in the heart of Chicago at 110 N. Wacker Drive on September 9, 2026, for a masterclass built around a single question:
What actually separates organizations that thrive in the AI era from those that stall?
Presented by Reltio through its DataDriven thought leadership program and supported by the Enterprise Architect SAP Community and SAP, the Masterclass brings together authors, architects, data leaders, and practitioners for a curated sequence of sessions, all designed to connect the dots between leadership, data, context, and intelligence.
Space is intentionally limited to keep the day conversational and maximize the networking opportunities.
No pitch decks. No product demos. Just a day of ideas worth carrying back to your organization.
This learning experience is designed for enterprise leaders, architects, data professionals, AI practitioners, and business executives navigating one of the most significant technology shifts of our generation.

A Learning Journey
Each session of the Masterclass builds on the one before it, moving attendees through six guiding principles that connect leadership, data, and AI into a single, coherent story:
Leadership must evolve before technology creates value.
Why AI is a business and leadership transformation — not just another technology cycle.
Better decisions begin with better thinking about data.
Moving beyond dashboards toward truly data-inspired decision making.
We don't just move data; we move human possibilities, and in the agentic era, we move consequences.
Why trust, accountability, and governance are prerequisites for letting AI act on your behalf, not afterthoughts you fix once something's already gone wrong.
Context transforms trusted data into enterprise intelligence.
How contextual intelligence is becoming the operating system for enterprise AI.
Agentic Intelligence: Strategy at the Speed of Data.Â
Make Your Data Work Together—and Work Fast.Â
Enterprise Architecture connects it all.
Connecting data, business context, applications, and AI into a coherent foundation for the autonomous enterprise.
The day closes with an interactive Speaker Conversation, where speakers return to the stage together to field questions, debate practical applications, and help attendees map the day's ideas onto their own organizations.
Participants won't leave just understanding six technology concepts in isolation — they'll understand how they fit together to create an intelligent enterprise.
Conversation. Community. Connection.
