Enterprises, accelerating the transformation of data utilization and AI "decision intelligence"

Enterprises are shifting their analytics systems to AI-based “decision intelligence” so they can make critical decisions more in real time. This is moving away from simply generating reports toward an approach that uses data immediately and applies it directly to operations. At Qlik Connect 2026, this transition will be accompanied by a roadmap and platform designed to help achieve real AI ROI.

As data roles change, traditional dashboards can no longer meet business needs. Instead, people are increasingly working to enable fast and consistent decision-making by combining data, artificial intelligence, and automated operating systems. Against this backdrop, Qlik Connect is expected to provide the practical solutions businesses need as they move from pilots to real operations.

To expand decision intelligence, data integration and quality management are essential. In hybrid environments, the consistency of data directly affects AI-driven decisions, making it increasingly important to build trusted data pipelines. In addition, strengthening collaboration between platforms and teams through partnerships is becoming even more critical, and the trend toward pursuing tangible results through real-world deployments is on the rise.

Ultimately, effective decision-making depends on how quickly data can be turned into actionable insights. Merely having data access is not enough—instant responsiveness is becoming a key factor in determining a company’s competitiveness.
