Ranga sits down for an open conversation on trusted data and AI. A few more people are joining him on stage, announced soon.

AI is only as good as the data it can securely reach.

Presented by Pavilion & NetSuite

Picture the three conversations already on your calendar.

Your team wants to point AI at the data inside your ERP.

Security wants to know exactly how those tools connect to core systems.

The board wants an AI plan that won't need re-platforming in a year.

Most AI advice starts with the model. But the pilot rarely stalls on the model. It stalls on the data underneath it, and on how tools are allowed to reach the systems where the work lives.

This session starts there. Ranga Bodla gets into what a trusted data foundation takes, how open standards like the Model Context Protocol connect AI to business systems securely, and how NetSuite's AI Connector fits, without giving up governance or choice.

The three questions
01 Can AI trust the data it's reading?
02 How does it connect to your systems, securely?
03 Can you govern all of it without locking yourself in?
The model was never the hard part. The trusted data underneath it is.

What you'll walk out with.

An hour on the foundation under your AI initiatives, not the demo on top of it.

A trusted data foundation

What it takes to make AI initiatives reliable: data that's clean, governed, and connected to the source of truth.

How MCP actually works

Why open standards like the Model Context Protocol let AI tools connect to business systems securely.

Innovation without losing control

How to move fast on AI while holding the line on governance, security, and flexibility.

An AI strategy that lasts

How to build a plan that evolves with the business instead of getting rebuilt every time the tech shifts.

Where NetSuite's AI Connector fits

How it supports this approach and puts more of your business data to work as AI keeps changing.

Real examples, not theory

How all of this shows up in a real business, with practical examples, not just a diagram on a slide.

Who this is for

For the people who own the data and the AI call.

You'll see how a trusted data foundation, open standards, and governance come together, and what that means for the systems your team already runs on.

If you decide how AI touches the source of truth, and you're the one who has to defend it, this is your seat.
