Connecting data across the product lifecycle promises greater traceability, faster decisions and improved operational performance, but implementation can quickly become costly and complex. Join peers to explore where the digital thread creates real value, how organisations are overcoming delivery barriers, and what success looks like in practice
Discussion Questions:
- Where does the digital thread create the most business value, and where is it simply expensive integration?
- What have been the biggest barriers to implementing a Digital Thread?
- What evidence shows that a Digital Thread is working in practice?
Who should attend:
This session is designed for data and AI leaders who:
- Are responsible for connecting data across the product life cycle.
