SAP Business Data Cloud is the cornerstone of SAP's Business AI Platform architecture
Join Anna Panitkova and Deep Garcha, SAP for an interactive roundtable exploring how SAP Business Data Cloud (BDC) is helping organisations build a trusted, AI-ready data foundation.
The session will begin with an overview of how BDC brings together trusted business data, real-time context and AI-ready data products in a way that is uniquely aligned to your business processes. They will also look at the impact of SAP's recent acquisitions of Reltio and Dremio and how they are enhancing data quality, governance, flexibility and choice for SAP customers.
Discover how Reltio's cloud-native Master Data Management capabilities help create a single, trusted view of customers, suppliers, products and materials, while Dremio expands options for managing and accessing enterprise data through a governed, semantically rich data foundation designed for AI, analytics and business applications.
Following the introduction, the conversation will open up to the group, providing a valuable opportunity to share experiences, ask questions, discuss challenges and explore practical use cases with fellow SAP users in an open and honest peer-led discussion.
Whether you're exploring your AI strategy, modernising your data landscape or looking to better understand SAP's vision for Business AI, this roundtable offers the chance to exchange insights, learn from peers and discover how SAP is turning AI ambition into tangible business value.
