Upcoming
Most AI pilots never reach production, and the model is rarely the reason. The data can’t be found, trusted, accessed or explained.
Your AI Isn’t Failing. Your Data Is.
November 12, 2026

What we will cover

Most AI pilots never reach production, and the model is rarely the reason. The data can’t be found, trusted, accessed or explained.

Join us for a live conversation about getting your AI and agents to the data they need, and proving they used it correctly.

Stefan Nica, Data Practice Lead at Tecknoworks, leads the session. He’ll show us how data federation and modern governance let your AI and agents use data where it already lives, without another big migration. He will also cover when to federate and when to centralize, how today’s leading platforms compare, and how catalogs, lineage and semantic layers turn “the agent got it wrong” into answers you can defend.

  • The real AI bottleneck: why most AI pilots stall on data access, quality and trust rather than on model choice.
  • Federate or centralize: a practical framework for deciding when AI should use data where it lives and when to move it.
  • Governance as the AI control plane: how catalogs, lineage, access policies and semantic layers keep AI and agents accurate, secure and explainable.
  • The EU regulatory clock: what the AI Act, Data Act and DORA actually require of your data, and why building it now is cheaper than retrofitting later.
  • Governance that speeds delivery: the metrics that show governance getting AI to production faster instead of slowing it down.

Data Practice Lead, Tecknoworks

Stefan Nica leads the Data Practice at Tecknoworks. With a background in physics, he approaches data the way a scientist approaches a phenomenon: he analyzes the numbers until he understands why the system behaves as it does, and he trusts a result only when the evidence proves it.

Who this is for

  • CTOs, CIOs and data leaders deciding how much of their next migration or modernization to hand over to AI
  • Data and platform engineers who’ll own the mappings, pipelines and reconciliation when the target goes live
  • Integration and modernization teams moving off legacy systems where business logic lives in old procedures nobody’s documented
  • Anyone who’s watched an AI tool generate a migration in minutes and wondered how they’d prove it got everything right

Format and logistics

  • Where is it held? On GoToWebinar. You will receive the join link by email after registering.
  • What if I cannot attend live? Register anyway. We send the recording to everyone who signs up.
  • Is it a sales pitch? No. It is an engineering session, presented by the people who build these systems.
