About This Show
AI-drafted summaryThe Gartner Data & Analytics Summit is Gartner's flagship North American conference for data, analytics and AI leadership. Held annually in Orlando, Florida, it convenes chief data and analytics officers (CDAOs), heads of AI, and senior data and analytics leaders to explore the latest developments in data management, AI, agentic AI, generative AI, governance and data architecture. The 2027 theme is "Intelligence Unleashed: The Fast Track to Enduring Value," emphasizing how lasting business value comes from strong data, governance, operating models and technology foundations.
The agenda is built from Gartner's own research rather than vendor content, with analyst-led tracks spanning AI strategy, generative and agentic AI, data governance, data architecture, analytics and business intelligence, and decision intelligence. Attendees can access keynotes, roundtables, workshops, and private one-on-one meetings with Gartner analysts.
It is worth attending for professionals who want to validate their data and AI strategies with independent, data-driven guidance, benchmark against peers, and evaluate solution providers. Gartner describes it as the only IT conference shaped by data-driven insights and over 200,000 annual conversations between Gartner analysts and the IT community, supported on-site by a global team of 60+ analysts.
