Can your AI agent find your data, understand what it means, and then access only what it's allowed to, without anyone's help? In almost every conversation we have with technology leaders, the same problem surfaces. The AI investment has been made. But the data structure underneath was never ready for this change. Siloed sources, no discoverability, unstable access controls, formats that work for humans but not for models. The truth is, everyone's building, but not everyone is ready. This session is for the people trying to close that gap and transform their own data portfolio. We invited technology leaders and executives from multiple organizations, including ZoomInfo, to work through this together. Two focused talks, a mixer with an afterparty, and a room built for real conversations between the people making these decisions. Talk 1 What "AI-Ready Data" Actually Means and How Far You Really Are Speaker: Grzegorz Król VirtusLab has worked across dozens of enterprise data environments. This talk distills what actually separates organizations running AI at scale from those still fighting their own data — an approach built on open standards and battle-tested patterns, not newly invented frameworks. We'll walk you through a 10-layer readiness model that gives your leadership team a clear picture of where you stand today. The output for each layer gives your team: - concrete steps toward implementation - a practical scoring benchmark to assess your current state - a clear path forward - No vendor pitches. Just the framework. Talk 2 From Plan to Execution: Making Data AI-Ready Inside a Real Organization. Speaker: TBA This talk covers a real implementation, the architecture decisions made, the tradeoffs accepted, the risks that materialized, and the lessons that don't show up in whitepapers. Mixer + Afterparty After the talks, we’ll have a mixer with food, drinks, and a room full of leaders and executives who are dealing with the same problems and are keen to exchange their solutions. Hosted by VirtusLab VirtusLab has worked with Databricks, Airbnb, DHL, and a lot of teams in between. We know what AI-ready looks like, and what it takes to get there. This event is part of #BOSTechWeek, a week of events connecting the Boston tech ecosystem.
