AI Reality Tour 2026
In-person event:
Bridge the gap between data and the promise of AI

AI may be moving fast, but for many, it’s also falling short of its promise. The organizations pulling ahead aren’t the ones chasing the newest model; they’re the ones who’ve invested in building a trusted data foundation that makes every AI initiative live up to its potential.
The AI Reality Tour 2026 in Copenhagen is a free event for data, analytics, and AI leaders who are serious about closing the gap between what AI promised and what’s actually happening.
What to Expect
Whether you’re in the early stages of your AI journey or scaling production workloads, you’ll have an opportunity to:
- Discover how to achieve enterprise AI success, starting with a trusted data foundation
- Explore what’s possible with the latest agentic AI breakthroughs
- Learn from global organizations that are already transforming their operations and outcomes with Qlik
- Exchange ideas with Qlik experts, peers, and partners
