IDC & Mastek Executive Dinner

The CXO Reality: Strengthening Data for AI Success and the Roadmap to Agentic AI
For senior business and technology executives, the AI conversation is no longer about ambition, it is about whether the needed enterprise data and technology foundations can support practical value delivery.
A level of agentic AI adoption is already near universal across industries, with 95% of organisations across Europe saying they have deployed at least one agentic workflow. Yet almost 30% of organisations cite data quality and governance as a key implementation challenge; and over a third see the high cost of implementation and integration as a barrier. Organisations are succeeding with harvesting “low-hanging fruit”, but broad and shallow adoption of AI is not enough to drive the results that you need.
IDC and Mastek will convene a curated group of senior technology leaders for an evening of insights, sharing intelligence, challenging assumptions, and leaving with a clearer path forward.
