This year, the theme “From Technology to Business-First Innovation with Data & AI” reflects the urgent need to move beyond pilots and isolated wins, and transform enterprise investments in data and AI into measurable business impact. Despite massive investments in generative AI, most organizations continue to struggle to translate this technology into tangible outcomes. DIS 2026 addresses this gap by focusing on practical application, cross-industry learnings, and enterprise transformation, helping you turn readiness into action.’
