 versity.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=165&proposalid=16660\nEvery data leader e
 ventually hits the same fork in the road: invest in an enterprise data stra
 tegy before shipping anything, or let real use cases pull the foundations i
 nto place as value is delivered. Strategy-first proponents argue it is the 
 only way to prevent fragmentation, duplicated spend, and governance debt ac
 ross a sprawling enterprise. Use-case-led advocates counter that strategy w
 ithout delivery is theater &mdash; that momentum, credibility, and even dat
 a quality itself emerge only when something real ships.\nIn this moderated 
 debate, two sides will make their strongest cases, challenge each other dir
 ectly, and take questions from the room. Expect a candid exchange on where 
 each approach actually wins, where each one quietly fails, and how regulati
 on, GenAI, and data-product thinking are reshaping the trade-off. Attendees
  will leave with a sharper lens for auditing their own programs and a pract
 ical frame for deciding where the next dollar, hire, and quarter of effort 
 should go.
