The success of AI initiatives depends on trusted data sets. Organizations who are able to leverage trusted internal enterprise data assets for AI are at a significant strategic advantage in today’s AI-driven marketplace. Customer, Product, Location data and more become the building blocks for effective AI models. Master Data Management is the process of creating these trusted data sets for core enterprise assets, which requires a combination of data governance, business process alignment, and a strong data architecture. This session covers practical ways to use MDM to accelerate your strategic AI efforts.

DAMA-I Event: A Fool with a Tool is Still a Fool (09/24/2026)

Thu, 24 Sep 2026 15:00:00 GMT

REGISTER WITH DAMA-I at the link at the bottom of this description.

The DAMA International Data Executives And Leaders (IDEAL) group has scheduled a webinar for 24 September. It is titled:

A Fool with a Tool is Still a Fool

The topic is an important one for data leaders.

Leadership is often discussed in frameworks, models, and job titles. Far less often it’s explored as it is actually lived. In this special DAMA International Data Executives and Leaders (formally isCDO) webcast, we sit down with Florian Krueger, who has over 25 years of broad and deep knowledge of the digital space - and a track record of turning emerging technology into working businesses rather than slideware.

Today he leads a portfolio of AI-focused ventures: Fintery (AI execution and advisory hub), AIOS Institute (AI operating frameworks and standards). Alakai (AI readiness diagnostics), TAKO (AI-native CRM), EarnRM (revenue operations and MarinMaster (maritime operations). Earlier ventures include the Craft Coin Company and UNYTED - all built around a consistent thesis: personal data ownership, privacy, safety and security as the foundation of durable technology businesses.

He is passionate about tying every initiative back to strategic objectives that produce usable outcomes. Florian studied Insurance Economics in Munich and Business IT Management at MIT, and has been a valued partner and adviser to companies such as BMW, Danone, Statiol, Bank of America, Citi, Minfo, DLT Partners and EnergyDeck.

If you are reponsible for people, culture, data, or strategy, or if you aspire to be, then this conversation will challenge assumptions, surface uncomfortable truths, and leave you thinking long after it ends.

This is leadership as lived experience.

Honest. Reflective. And it is highly relevant to the moment we are in.

A must-attend conversation for data and business leaders worldwide.

The broadcast will begin next Thursday, 24 September 2026, at 16:00 UTC (11:am NYC). To submit a question or learn more, please join us or pass this educational opportunity to others who might benefit. Register for free:
