$1.3 trillion in potential economic value is locked behind poor data readiness.
74% of digital leaders cite skills shortage as the biggest barrier to AI deployment.
68% of CISOs believe AI-driven threats will outpace defensive capabilities by 2027.
Every $1 invested in enterprise AI can unlock $3–$8 in measurable value when properly operationalised.
