Shebani Baweja, Group Chief Data Officer at Standard Chartered, speaks with Bryan Lee, Group Head of Data at United Overseas Bank, about why governance, agility and innovation reinforce each other when they are designed well.

Jessie Smith, Chief Product Officer at Ataccama, explores how data leaders can assess readiness, adjust execution, and connect AI use cases to measurable business outcomes.
Legacy technology architectures were not designed for artificial intelligence, making tail-end data reviews a major bottleneck for scaling enterprise AI. In this interview, Shebani Baweja, Group Chief Data Officer at Standard Chartered, speaks with Bryan Lee, Group Head of Data at United Overseas Bank, about embedding data controls directly into development pipelines. Discover how automating data governance and building trusted data products accelerates enterprise innovation.
How can government agencies prepare data for advanced analytics and AI while maintaining quality, governance, privacy, and public trust? Neil Cooke, Chief Data Officer at the State of Texas, discusses the challenge with Dr. Adita Karkera, Chief Data Officer, Government and Public at Deloitte, including agency data maturity assessments, responsible AI practices, and practical data literacy.
Kyle DuPont, Founder and CEO of DataXray, speaks with CDO Magazine Editorial Board Member Maribeth Achterberg, that most enterprise AI strategies stop at a stack of Copilot licenses with no way to measure return. DuPont breaks down why a typical enterprise project takes roughly eighteen months to move from proposal to a budgeted rollout, and argues that real safeguards start with knowing exactly where sensitive data, especially within unstructured files, lives.
Beth Hiatt, SVP of Product Management, Data Governance and Responsible AI, tells Jessie Smith, Chief Product Officer at Ataccama, that even flawless data quality cannot earn AI trust without the right business context. Hiatt also walks through why data stewardship is shifting away from manual human review and toward agents that handle metadata, quality checks and classification on their own.
Shebani Baweja, Group Chief Data Officer at Standard Chartered, tells Bryan Lee, Group Head of Data at United Overseas Bank, that scaling AI across a bank is an enterprise challenge rather than a technology one. Baweja explains why data governance has shifted from a defensive compliance function into a source of competitive advantage, and names three enablers essential to scaling AI safely: data access, data quality and data risk management.
Neil Cooke, Chief Data Officer for the State of Texas, tells Dr. Adita Karkera, Chief Data Officer, Government and Public at Deloitte, that leading a statewide data program depends less on technology and more on governance, communication and trust. Cooke walks through the shift into the interim CDO role and the questions that still guide the office today: what matters most, how it is measured, where the data lives, and who can be trusted to own it.
Tony Trim, Manufacturing Operations AI Leader at Eaton, speaks with Stephen Hooper, SVP Operations Solutions at Autodesk, that agentic AI in manufacturing only earns trust when its boundaries, interlocks, permissives and clear human authority are engineered in before it reaches the plant floor. Trim explains why a wrong AI action on a plant floor can cost product, equipment or safety, and why the next few years in manufacturing depend on treating AI as a capacity strategy rather than a technology upgrade.
Kyle DuPont, Founder and CEO of DataXray (Ohalo), speaks with Maribeth Achterberg, CDO Magazine Editorial Board Member, about data loss prevention, zero trust, compliance, and the metadata foundation connecting security with data management. The conversation explores how regulated enterprises can protect data across internal and external environments while supporting broader data use cases.
