In the modern AI world, data is more than just a resource. It is the fundamental core that aligns decision makers, supports processes, and enables innovation. As AI applications become more robust and pervasive, their progress will only match the evolution of the data infrastructure behind them.
We're excited to discuss the data deluge live on the SaaS stage at TechCrunch Disrupt 2024 with industry experts George Fraser, CEO of Fivetran, Chet Kapoor, Chairman and CEO of DataStax, and Vanessa Larco, Partner at NEA.
The panel will take a deep dive into the shift from simple data accumulation to meaningful integration and explore how businesses can build, manage, secure and scale their data infrastructure. They will share insights into the future of data evolution and the strategies businesses need to adopt to stay ahead in a data-driven world.
