DATA TRENDS 2026

In 2026, data is increasingly consumed by autonomous AI agents that analyze, reason and act at machine speed.

  • Why “agent-ready data” becomes the new standard

  • Why data provenance turns into a strategic capability

  • How to use synthetic data responsibly and effectively

  • Why data sovereignty is becoming a board-level priority
