THE Qlik®, a global leader in data integration, data quality, analytics, and artificial intelligence (AI), announces AI Reality Tour 2025, a global event series designed to help organizations transform AI strategies into measurable business results.
With 87% of business leaders now considering AI execution as mission-critical, AI Reality Tour brings Qlik's latest innovations directly to businesses in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), and Asia-Pacific (APAC). However, only 42% of executives express complete, auditable confidence in AI-generated insights, highlighting a significant trust gap. At the same time, 74% cite infrastructure costs, data silos, and slow ingestion as key barriers, reinforcing the urgent need for scalable, integrated solutions that can transform AI ambitions into real results.
"AI is no longer a lab experiment; it's a starting point. What differentiates leaders today is execution," says Mike Capone, CEO of Qlik. "This means embedding intelligence where decisions are made and doing so with speed, confidence, and scale. The AI Reality Tour shows how this applies in practice, because strategy without action generates no impact."
AI Reality Tour 2025 will showcase how Qlik is uniquely enabling execution at scale through three key innovations:
– A platform, created for action: Qlik unifies data integration, analytics, and AI into a single, cloud-native platform, so execution happens faster, without complex integrations or system handoffs.
– Designed to be open, with efficiency as standard: Qlik Open Lakehouse offers real-time ingestion, automated Iceberg optimization, and cross-engine access, reducing infrastructure costs by up to 50% and increasing performance by up to 5x.
– AI that works where you work: From proactive discovery agents to embedded prediction, writeback and data preparation, Qlik's embedded capabilities bring intelligence directly into workflows—ready to use and at scale.
“Qlik stood out because we didn't have to rebuild our architecture or retrain our teams,” says Vivienne Parsons, Senior Management Information Analyst – 999 Operations, RSO, and Business Intelligence Special Projects at South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust. “We connected our systems, brought in the right data, and started seeing results quickly. It's one of the few platforms that truly works across all areas, from IT to business, without creating additional complexity.”
The AI Reality Tour is designed for decision-makers looking to accelerate the journey from strategy to execution. Each event offers practical insights into what it takes to scale AI in complex environments through live demos, hands-on sessions with Qlik experts, and discussions about real-world implementations. Content is tailored to regional priorities, focusing on the conditions that make AI valuable, not just possible.
The AI Reality Tour 2025 runs from June to October, with events in major cities across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and Asia-Pacific (APAC). To see the full schedule and register, visit AI Reality Tour website.
