AI is rapidly becoming part of modern business strategy. From copilots to predictive analytics, organisations are being told the same thing: adopt AI or fall behind.

But there is a critical question many businesses haven’t answered yet.

Is your data actually ready for AI?

In this session, we explore how Power BI can be used as a strategic lens to assess AI readiness across an organisation. Using a real Power BI report built with anonymised data, we will demonstrate how leaders can quickly evaluate the health of their data estate, from data quality and governance to platform maturity and operational risk.

Rather than focusing on building reports, this session shows how analytics can surface the issues that often sit beneath the surface: fragmented data sources, inconsistent standards, security gaps, and hidden operational dependencies.

For technology leaders, this provides something extremely valuable. A clear, visual understanding of where your organisation is prepared for AI and where the foundations still need work.

If your data is ready, you gain confidence that AI initiatives can move forward.

If it isn’t, you gain something even more useful: a clear roadmap of what needs fixing first.

Because the biggest risk in adopting AI isn’t the technology.

It’s the data you build it on.
