Horváth AI & Data Convention

Ready to unlock the next level of business management?

The megatrend of digitalization is taking companies to profound changes towards AI & data-driven organizations. Market success is increasingly relying on AI- & data-driven performance management and optimization, which is measured across functional areas primarily by one ability: Generating competitive advantage with AI & data. The Horváth AI & Data Convention is specifically dedicated to this potential. In 2025 it will be organized in cooperation with SAP.

In previous years, the conference was held under the name “Forum digitale Unternehmenssteuerung”. As “Horváth AI & Data Convention”, we are developing the format into an international platform.
Accordingly, it will be held in English from 2025.
