- Technology is reshaping how organisations compete, innovate, and make decisions. In this keynote, Elin explores how leaders can embed data and AI into corporate strategy and operations while safeguarding human judgment, culture, and long-term value creation.
- Cutting through the hype, the session clarifies how to align data and AI investments with real business priorities and measurable impact. As adoption accelerates, trust, accountability, and governance become decisive. Elin shows how leadership must evolve to balance innovation with responsibility and build transparent, ethical, and resilient organisations.

Keynote
Future of leadership: the power of Data & AI
Keynote
Data Accountability Is Now a Named Executive Responsibility
- Why “shared responsibility” no longer protects anyone and who ultimately carries the risk when AI makes consequential decisions?
- Who signs off when algorithms influence revenue, risk exposure or customer outcomes and is that mandate formally defined?
- What operational accountability looks like when AI is embedded into workflows

Keynote
AI Is Moving Fast — But Data Maturity Sets the Limit
- Why AI pilots succeed even when structural data maturity is low
- What breaks when scaling AI without coherent data foundations
- How data quality, ownership and architecture determine AI reliability
- Where AI ambition exceeds structural readiness
Keynote
Autonomous AI Systems Expose Structural Weakness
- Why agents magnify inconsistencies in your domain models
- How unclear data ownership becomes operational instability
- What structural discipline is required before autonomy can scale
- Why AI reliability is a data architecture question
Lunch Break & Networking
Keynote
Most Enterprises Don’t Need More Data — They Need Less
- Why more data does not automatically mean better AI
- How data sprawl increases model instability and operational risk
- What disciplined data rationalisation enables in AI performance
- Who decides what data is strategically essential
Keynote
From Project Funding to Structural Data Infrastructure
- Why AI programmes fail when underlying data capabilities remain project-based
- How shared data infrastructure enables repeatable AI deployment
- What long-term capability looks like beyond isolated AI use cases
- How to fund the foundation rather than the experiment
Networking Break
- DataOps: raporteista vaikuttaviin tekoihin
- Datan tuotteistaminen: käytettävyys, saatavuus ja käyttäjälähtöisyys
- Datakultuuri: puheista konkreettiseen hyödyntämiseen päivittäistyössä
- AI:n ja automaation rooli tiedolla johtamisessa
Keynote
The Three Data Decisions That Will Define Your AI Future
- What must be structurally aligned before AI investment accelerates
- Where accountability for AI-enabling data truly sits
- What foundational capabilities require commitment before scaling further
Keynote
When Machines Make Decisions Who Holds The Power And Who Holds The Risk
- In an era where agents execute transactions, models influence credit decisions, and algorithms shape strategic outcomes, power inside the enterprise is being redefined. Accountability, governance and economic control must evolve at the same pace as automation.
- How autonomous systems reshape decision rights and enterprise power structures
- Why responsible AI is no longer a compliance layer but a strategic discipline
- The economic consequences of unmanaged AI risk
- What boards and executives must rethink before 2027
