February 9-10, 2026: Where the brightest minds in semantic tech come to talk shop!

GenAI has put enterprise data strategy under a spotlight—and exposed the cracks. Organizations are discovering that their AI ambitions outpace their data readiness. Data complexity is mounting, insights are bottlenecked, and transformation efforts are stalling before they gain traction.

The path forward isn’t theoretical—it’s being carved out right now by leaders who are making real progress. Learning from those who’ve navigated data complexity, built organizational buy-in, and delivered working AI projects can accelerate your own journey. This is your chance to see and learn from real world case studies and connect with that community.

Introducing the 5th Annual EDT Symposium

This virtual event brings together data visionaries, business leaders, and innovators who are redefining how their organizations manage information and data.

This year’s program addresses:

  • Building momentum and buy-in for data initiatives
  • Avoiding common traps that derail transformation efforts
  • Utilizing open source and standards-based tools to prevent vendor lock-in
  • Applying data-centric thinking to drive ethical, successful GenAI projects

If you believe data should be the backbone of your organization’s strategy, join the conversation shaping the next era of enterprise intelligence.
