These are the people influencing and delivering business change through better data management. Who better to learn from? You’ll walk away feeling inspired and confident to follow in their footsteps.
Get Hands-On With Emerging Tech
Tech is the lifeblood of data management. It enables you to collect, store, analyse, and use data at scale, and the possibilities offered by innovative technologies continue to expand. At DTX, you can see firsthand the emerging tools transforming how organisations use data as a resource, or try out the most reliable solutions designed to meet your needs.
Meet People From Your World
DTX events bring the data management community together. Attendees might span industries and roles, but they’re all focused on delivering meaningful change. Plus, they understand the challenges you face. When all this shared experience comes together, new ideas and solutions always emerge. And the connections you make help you continue to grow and improve long after the event ends.
Stand at the Helm of Progress
Data management is evolving at an unprecedented rate. Think of all the progress made by new tech, such as AI, in recent years. This pace of change isn’t slowing down, so if you want to remain competitive, you have no choice but to keep up. DTX is the place to do this.
Here, you’ll hear digital leaders and builders discuss the latest emerging trends shaping data management, so you have the foresight needed to maintain your edge.
Discover by Doing
DTX is all about active, rather than passive, learning. It’s not just watching and listening in silence. Instead, you have plenty of options to get involved in live demonstrations and hands-on workshops. This makes the experience far more memorable and actionable, helping you convert new knowledge into ROI.
See results in real-time and get on-the-spot feedback from the greatest minds in data management.
AI, Analytics, Governance, and the Future of Big Data
Data management is one of the fastest-changing business disciplines, driven by an explosion in data volume, the integration of AI and ML, stricter regulations, and its shift from a technical function to a core business strategy.
To stay ahead, you must adapt how you generate insights and implement strong governance. At DTX, you’ll see how forward-thinking organisations like Ivanti are turning these challenges into opportunities.
Gain a clear understanding of how to manage and use data effectively by exploring cutting-edge tools and testing practical solutions. From AI-powered analytics to governance strategies that protect and maximise your data, every session is designed to help you act decisively in the right direction.
Attending DTX equips your team with the knowledge and connections to navigate this rapidly evolving area. In a world increasingly defined by AI and big data, ensure you’re ready to innovate responsibly and stay in control of your data.
Data and AI aren’t confined to a single stage at DTX; they’re embedded across the entire event. Key themes you’ll explore include:
- Human-centric AI
- The role of high-quality data when developing and using AI models
- Implementing AI successfully to optimise and streamline processes and create value
- Cultivating a data-literate culture

Who You’ll Meet: Networking Gold
If there’s one thing we can guarantee at our data management event, it’s that you’ll be in great company. Teams from every sector and all stages of digital transformation flock to our data management exhibition each year.
You’ll have the opportunity to connect with the following personas, each of which has something different to offer:
Digital and Innovation Leaders
These are the top dogs, like CDOs, who align technology strategies with overall business goals. They bridge the gap between technical and non-technical teams, helping you see data management in a more holistic way. This makes it clear how to move beyond how data is managed and focus on why it matters to your business.
Tech Planners and Implementers
Once you have a great strategy, you need to be able to turn it into reality. That’s where tech planners and implementers come in. Meeting these people helps you move from ideas to execution by offering grounded, practical perspectives on data management and decision-making. They can help iron out any technical issues you’ve been having.
Expert Builders
Builders, such as Enterprise Architects, design the technical foundations behind data management systems. Networking with peers in these roles gives you fresh perspectives beyond your own organisation, helping you benchmark approaches and explore how others are scaling and integrating new tools to support AI, governance, and long-term growth.
Influencers
With so many data management tools and technologies available, knowing what’s possible in the current market is easy. It’s knowing what to focus on that’s the hard part. Influencers, such as heads of operations or strategy, identify the business needs that technology should address. Networking with them clarifies priorities and makes sure your investments will have meaningful outcomes.
Channel
To identify the most lucrative data management opportunities, you need to broaden your awareness beyond just your business or industry. Conversations with channel attendees, like MSPs, allow you to see how data management works across many organisations. This wider perspective helps you spot proven approaches and make smarter, more scalable decisions.
