- Leveraging Intelligent Integration and Automation for Digital Cohesion(UK Virtual) The hype around generative AI is building, however, many organisations are dealing with digital fragmentation and complexity around their data and processes. The CIO needs to be in the driver's seat to keep pushing the company forward by providing services and applications to support the change, growth and to scale to new heights. The underlying key to achieving digital cohesion is intelligent integration and automation. Join Tom Clarke as he shares the reality of Generative AI, Opportunities for change, and approaches for scaling practical AI.
- How to Win the War on Talent(UK Virtual) Inability to hire the right Talent is the number one reason Data Analytics initiatives fail, say Gartner. Does your company struggle to recruit the best talent for your positions? Are you reliant on out-dated practices to find and retain good talent? What does headhunting really look like? How do you access the full talent pool and attract the perfect candidate? In this session, Jeremy will explore how to access the right talent for your business across industries and practical steps you as a leader can take to make this happen.
