Donald Trump is back in the White House: we discuss how US tech billionaires influenced the recent election, what the new administration might mean for influential US tech policies, and how it could impact NZ's tech industry.
Then, we're diving into data with Snowflake's New Zealand country manager, Tony Shaw.
Shaw shares how any size of organisation can benefit from data analytics and AI, emphasising the importance of having high-quality, consolidated information to drive business outcomes.
He also talks about generative AI and the role that good data practice has in realising its potential and mitigating risks.
