Summit Theme

Six themes for 2027

Six themes shaped by the questions senior data and AI teams are working through right now.

Leadership, Value, and AI Economics

  • AI FinOps and unit economics for agentic workloads, where inference cost scales with usage
  • Chargeback, allocation and the value attribution models finance functions will approve
  • Portfolio decisions on scaling, sustaining or stopping AI, and how boards now review them

Modern Data Foundations, Architecture, and Semantics

  • Data products with defined ownership, and quality thresholds set for machine consumption
  • Retrieval, RAG and knowledge graphs across the unstructured content that models depend on
  • Semantic layers, ontologies and metadata that give AI systems governed business context

Generative & Agentic AI: Scaling, Evaluation & Security

  • Multi-agent orchestration, evaluation and tracing across live enterprise systems
  • Access control and audit trails for non-human identities, which existing IAM never covered
  • Human-in-the-loop escalation design, drawn from agents that were paused as well as scaled

Analytics, Modern BI & Decision Intelligence

  • Conversational and self-service BI running on governed metric definitions
  • Provenance and confidence design, so users can see what an AI-generated answer rests on
  • Embedded analytics, decision intelligence, and which legacy reporting to decommission

Governance, Risk Management, and Regulations

  • EU AI Act high-risk obligations and the evidence built during development
  • Harmonised standards, conformity assessment, and risk tiering that keeps routine work moving
  • Provider or deployer: how fine-tuning a general-purpose model changes your legal position

AI Infrastructure, Sovereignty & Interoperability

  • Exit planning and multi-vendor architecture now that switching cost has stopped protecting incumbents
  • Where lock-in relocates next: proprietary formats, identity binding and repriced core services
  • Sovereign cloud, EuroHPC gigafactory capacity, and grid limits on where AI workloads can run

Welcome to BIAAS 2027

A summit for the people who own data and AI decisions.
