The DGIQ agenda will cover all areas of Data Governance and Information Quality, while Enterprise Data World will focus on Data Management business solutions—from organizations just starting out to advanced practitioners.
Vendors submitting proposals for the educational agenda should note that sessions must be product-neutral and free from commercial bias. If you'd like to present your products or services directly, sponsored presentation slots are available for that purpose.
The proposals that rise to the top tend to:
- Open with a clear, concise abstract: tell us what attendees will learn and why it will be useful to them
- Spend the majority of your time on solutions, not restating problems the audience already knows
- Target a specific audience: Management, Steward, Analyst, or Enterprise Architect
- Share a first-hand case study with real lessons learned from personal experience
- Include concrete analysis: cost savings, time efficiencies, measurable outcomes
- Give practitioners a roadmap they can take back to their organization and use
For questions about speaking, please contact Kat Parker, Conference Manager, and Tony Shaw, Program Chair, at speakers@dataversity.net.
