Delivering actionable data at speed and scale

LIVE DINNER
22 October 2025 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm EST
In partnership

Dinner Location: Cathedrale Restaurant in New York City

In today’s data-driven landscape, volume alone isn’t enough. As data sources multiply across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, many organizations face a growing challenge: fragmented data silos that obstruct visibility, slow decision-making, and stall innovation.

Data executives increasingly need to explore modern approaches to data integration that break down those silos, enable trusted access, and lay the foundation for transformative initiatives such as AI and intelligent agents. So how do you move from complexity to clarity and unlock the full potential of your data?

Join IBM and other data leadership peers at this Meet the Boss event to find out, and discover how to turn your data into a strategic asset that drives agility, insight and growth.
