Data Intelligence in Flux: The Impact of AI with Stewart Bond, VP at IDC

About 15 years ago, organizations knew they needed data governance but faced a branding problem. People hated the term. Stewart Bond coined “data intelligence” to describe intelligence about data and shift the governance conversation – and a category was born. Today, data intelligence represents a $9B+ market. This concept has given rise to the "data intelligence stack," which includes data cataloging, data quality management, and data product hubs, all of which play vital roles in AI model development. Looking ahead, big changes are coming. IDC predicts that by 2028, the Chief Data Officer’s role will rival the CIO’s in shaping technology investments. In this episode, Satyen and Stewart dive into the components of data intelligence, the growing importance of data products, and key insights from IDC's recent MarketScape evaluation.
