About this Event

DAMA Melbourne June 4th Event sponsored by IMS Academy

AI strategy is easy to talk about, but making it real across an organisation is where things get hard.


Too much governance can restrict innovation, taking us back to the bad old days of data governance being seen as a drag rather than an enabler. Too little governance creates risk, confusion and uncontrolled adoption.


That balance is exactly what we’ll be tackling at the next DAMA Melbourne event on 4 June - proudly sponsored by IMS and hosted at our Melbourne CBD offices.


Join us at Level 14, 333 Collins Street, Melbourne from 5:15pm for pre-DAMA drinks and networking as we celebrate the launch of IMS Academy - our new corporate learning practice focused on building practical data and AI capability across organisations.


Then from 6:00pm, join the DAMA Melbourne event featuring a presentation from George Bassili (Managing Partner, IM Systems) and Su Jella (Practice Director, IMS Academy) on designing an AI strategy that enables innovation, followed by a preview of IMS Academy’s new AI Primer - designed to help organisations turn AI strategy into action - by building AI literacy across the workforce and enabling employees to operate confidently within a governed AI environment.


If your organisation is exploring the intersection of data and AI, but struggling to move beyond pilots and hype, this session will focus on what it actually takes to embed AI in practice.
