The Data Gathering: Top Tips for Data Leaders in 2025

Companies are grappling with the challenges of implementing a new wave of AI. To address these pressing issues, we recently hosted a Data Gathering that brought together industry professionals to share their experiences and insights.

By listening to feedback from people in the market, we aimed to uncover common hurdles and explore effective strategies for navigating the complexities of data governance and ethics. This event provided a valuable platform for networking and knowledge exchange, highlighting the critical role of governance and ethical practices in ensuring the success and sustainability of organisations in the age of AI.

 

The Questions:

1.        Is Data governance becoming more critical with AI adoption?

2.        The evolution of Data governance: Preparing for the future.

3.        Integrating Data ethics into governance strategies.

 

Event Takeaway

The overall takeaway from the table was the recognition of shared challenges in data governance and ethics, highlighting the importance of networking to find solutions. Attendees noted that mature data governance practices are rare, and both data governance and AI, as well as data ethics, are complex and difficult to navigate. The emergence of ethics committees within companies was also a significant point of discussion, emphasising the subjective nature of ethics and the critical role of governance.
