Data Leaders Meetup - AI runs on data. Data runs on dbt.
dbt has become the standard for how data teams build, test, document, and govern transformations. What’s changing is the shift toward making metadata machine-readable and structured. This enables more consistent orchestration and dependency management, while also supporting semantic layers and making data models easier for AI systems to understand and use.
Join data leaders from across the Nordics in Oslo, May 20
During this afternoon of sessions and peer conversation you will hear how Norges Bank Investment Management and Novo Holdings have built dbt into the operational backbone of their platforms - covering everything from metadata architecture and governed data products to agentic AI workflows running on top of dbt and Snowflake. You'll also get a direct look at what's shipping in dbt, including the latest on dbt Fusion.
Agenda
What to expect
See what's possible when dbt becomes not just a transformation tool, but the metadata backbone that powers lineage, semantic definitions, ownership, freshness, and AI-readiness across an entire platform.
Hear real-world experiences from data leaders at Norges Bank Investment Management and Novo Holdings, who have successfully tackled technical and cultural challenges while driving agility and collaboration within their teams.
Walk away with a clear framework for building the trusted data foundation your AI strategy depends on.
