Beyond the Roadmap: What Separates Enterprise AI Leaders from Everyone Else

Every enterprise has a data strategy. Far fewer have turned it into measurable, board-level performance. In this executive panel, senior leaders join Databricks VP of Product Craig Wiley to share what separates organizations that are generating real outcomes from those still building the case. They'll discuss the architectural decisions that paid off, the organizational obstacles they didn't see coming, and how Lakebase and Genie are accelerating the journey from insight to action. This is a peer-level conversation — not a vendor pitch — for executives who want an honest look at what it takes to become a genuinely data-intelligent enterprise. Audience Q&A will be a central part of this session.
