As enterprise AI adoption accelerates, access to trusted and governed data is becoming a critical competitive advantage. CData Software has strengthened its leadership team with the appointment of Raviv Levi as Chief Product and Technology Officer, along with Amit Naik as VP of AI Architecture and Craig Sanchez as SVP of Embedded Sales. The move underscores a growing industry reality: AI models are evolving rapidly, but data connectivity, context, and governance remain the foundation for making AI work in production. With its Connect AI platform, CData is positioning itself to help enterprises power conversational AI and autonomous agents with secure, real-time access to data across the organization.

AI should amplify people, not replace them. The real opportunity is using AI to handle repetitive tasks so teams can focus on what humans do best: creativity, strategy, and critical thinking. As Melissa R. of AppOmni puts it, parts of your work can be automated. You cannot. That mindset shift is where the real value of AI begins.

“What captivates everyone about GenAI is that it feels like we can finally talk to computers.” In this episode, Melissa R., Senior Director of AI at AppOmni, breaks down what enterprise AI adoption really looks like today. AI is no longer an experiment. The focus has shifted from “Should we use it?” to “How do we use it securely, responsibly, and in a way that delivers measurable ROI?” Melissa shares: • Why AI governance starts with understanding what data you’re feeding into the model • How employee training plays a critical role in reducing AI-related risk • Where enterprises are most exposed to new security gaps • Why AI should augment human expertise, not replace it If your organization is moving from AI curiosity to enterprise-wide implementation, this conversation offers a practical roadmap for doing it right.

AI ROI is not measured by investment headlines. It is measured by whether work gets easier, faster, and more efficient every day. In this leadership article, Sebastian Schrötel of TeamViewer explains how AI is helping organizations reduce digital friction and turn IT operations from reactive support into proactive, autonomous systems.

AI is commanding urgent attention in the boardroom. David W Duffy, Co-Founder and Chair of The Corporate Governance Institute, explains why AI has become a clear governance priority, while ESG and regulatory complexity continue to reveal significant oversight gaps. One key takeaway: governance is no longer about good intentions. It is about proving that controls are effective. https://lnkd.in/gKmED_7D #CorporateGovernance #BoardLeadership #AI #ESG #RegulatoryCompliance #RiskManagement #Leadership

Innovation labs are no longer “nice-to-have” experiments sitting on the sidelines of enterprise strategy. They’re becoming the operational engine behind how modern organizations rethink workforce challenges, unlock efficiency, and build scalable competitive advantage. As AI adoption accelerates, the real differentiator is not just deploying technology, it’s creating an environment where experimentation, curiosity, and rapid problem-solving are embedded into the culture. In this piece, Brad Martin, CRO at Atrium and President of Atrium AIR, explores how conversational AI is reshaping enterprise innovation and helping organizations build smarter workforce and talent ecosystems. The bigger shift? Enterprises are moving from reactive transformation to intentional innovation. And the companies investing in that mindset today will define the next decade of business growth https://lnkd.in/dv_2ifit  

Most facilities teams aren’t struggling with effort. They’re struggling with execution gaps. For years, systems were built to record work, not actually move it forward. Tickets get logged. Dashboards get updated. But execution? Still dependent on people chasing people. That model doesn’t scale anymore. In this conversation with Prabhu Ramachandran, Co-Founder & CEO of Facilio, the shift is clear: We’re moving from systems of record → systems of execution. Autonomous AI is stepping in as the missing execution layer, where operations don’t wait for approvals, follow-ups, or manual coordination. And the teams that embrace it early? They won’t just operate better, they’ll operate continuously. #FacilitiesManagement #PropTech #AI #Automation #DigitalTransformation #FutureOfWork #SmartBuildings

Everyone says they’re ready for AI. The data tells a more complicated story. If 87% of leaders believe they have the foundation for AI, why do 42% still see infrastructure, skills, and data readiness as major blockers? That gap is where the real conversation begins. In this conversation, Dave Shuman of Precisely breaks down why strong AI outcomes still depend on getting the data fundamentals right, governance, integrity, trust, and the human decisions behind it all. A sharp discussion on AI readiness, data maturity, and what enterprises still need to solve before scaling AI safely and profitably.

As AI moves into production, data access is becoming a defining factor in enterprise readiness. Fivetran has introduced the ODI Data Access Benchmark to increase transparency into how software vendors enable or limit data access for analytics and AI workloads. In this newsletter, we explore why open data infrastructure is emerging as a strategic priority in the AI era. #AI #DataInfrastructure #OpenData #Fivetran #DataGovernance #EnterpriseAI #Analytics #DigitalTransformation #DataEngineering
