Build an AI-Ready Data Strategy
Centralized governance, modern data platform, and local autonomy
Executive Afterwork by Silamir, with the exclusive return of the Sonepar Group and the participation of Microsoft and Celonis.
All organizations today face the same challenges:
- scattered data
- often heterogeneous BI platforms
- decentralized organizations, potentially difficult to align
- growing expectations around AI, its governance, and scaling
- an ever-increasing demand for productivity, customer satisfaction, and growth
- A strong demand from trades and managers to interact directly with data.
We can no longer be content with modernizing our BI. It is necessary to build a Data platform capable of sustainably supporting Analytics, AI, and business uses.
How to evolve Data Governance, modernize its Analytics platform, and prepare for enterprise-wide AI usage while allowing business units autonomy in their decision-making?
That is precisely the subject of this evening.
Who is this event for?
It is designed for decision-makers who want to structure a Microsoft Data platform capable of accelerating Analytics, AI, and Process Intelligence usage within their organization.

- Chief Data Officer (CDO) & Directions Data
- DSI / CIO & Architecture Managers
