I had the opportunity to share my thoughts in this month’s Intelligent CIO Middle East on how CIOs can balance innovation and resilience in today’s AI- and data-driven world.   AI needs quality data to work well, and with data increasingly relying on AI to be managed and protected, it’s a cycle that needs to start with a solid foundation. For CIOs, this means building AI-ready data environments that enable real-time analytics, predictive modelling and proactive response, while also designing systems that can adapt and recover smoothly without disruption.   At DXC Technology - Middle East and Africa, we’re helping organisations across the region build this foundation by combining engineering, analytics and delivery to support CIOs as they tackle complex challenges and deliver lasting transformation.   Thanks to Mark Bowen for including my perspective alongside other regional leaders on this critical topic. The article is well worth a read: https://lnkd.in/g5rNyNa8
