Phil and Samir cover a range of topics, including:

• What are the key areas Sonata Software is recommending to its clients in its data modernization strategy?
• We recently did a joint study, where we spoke with 500 executives across Europe and North America these were a split of tech and non-tech senior executives and those people. 68% of respondents said ineffective data capture and human error were the top reasons for poor data quality. So, what does Sonata Software advise its clients to do to fix this human error issue and improve the quality of data that they need?
• There is some hype around the GenAI space, but I have gathered that Sonata Software has a slightly less hyped view of where this is and how this is going impact the industry.
• How does Sonata Software’s Platformation approach help businesses in their modernization and digital transformation journeys?
• According to our recent study, 17% of respondents felt the majority of their data is still unusable. So how can we work better with partners to improve this? Why do we continue to struggle with poor data capture after so many years of talking about this and trying to find the right tools to help us?
• We’ve come through a fairly tough economy but Sonata Software has seemed to be moving on quite aggressively. So, what do you think we’re going to be talking about next year? Is it going to be a year of more positivity and excitement and investment or do we still have some dark times ahead of us, what do you feel?
