NEW YORK, September 25, 2026 — Enterprise leaders from Perdue Farms, Air Canada, Trane Technologies, Aviva, and other global companies gathered at Dataiku Succeed 2026 to share how they are putting governed AI to work across their businesses. AI and business leaders attended Dataiku’s flagship conference in New York, where customers showed how clear ownership, trusted data, and practical governance are helping them move AI from isolated initiatives into measurable business operations.
The customer stories reflected a common challenge: enterprises need to prove the value AI delivers, establish clear ownership over it, and move fast without losing sight of either. Across the day, leaders shared how they are building that operating discipline into their AI programs.
“At Succeed, customers showed what it takes to make AI deliver beyond a single use case — the hard part most enterprises get stuck on,” said Florian Douetteau, co-founder and CEO of Dataiku. “They are bringing business and technical teams together, building on trusted data, and creating the governance needed to run AI with confidence as it scales.”

The conference also highlighted the growing management challenge behind this work. A new Dataiku study, Global AI Confessions Report: CIO Edition, 2026, conducted with The Harris Poll among 685 global CIOs, found that 84% of CIOs agree employees are creating AI agents and applications faster than IT can govern them. Seventy-five percent said they cannot consistently measure whether all their agents are delivering business outcomes.
At Succeed, Dataiku announced Agent Management, a new standalone product designed to help enterprises discover, monitor, and manage risk across AI agents, regardless of where they were built. Dataiku also expanded Cobuild, its natural-language agentic interface, with new capabilities including Cobuild Insights, Dataiku Headless, an expanded universal AI Catalog of vetted assets teams can build on, and Agent Management, now on Cobuild.
