Preparing for Agentic AI: Top Trends in Data and AI 2026 | Feat. Rory Blundell

As we move toward a future of autonomous agents, the biggest hurdle isn't the AI's intelligence—it’s the governance. In this segment of The Data Chief, Rory Blundell, CEO of @Graviteesource , explores the critical infrastructure needed to move agents from "experimental" to "enterprise-grade."

Rory explains how the agentic era is fundamentally redefining API integration and why many organizations are hitting a "maturity wall." Learn how to build the security frameworks and management layers necessary to give your agents the power to act without compromising your brand’s trust or security.

In this segment, we explore:

• The Maturity Gap: Why most enterprises are stuck in the early stages of AI and how to break through to "Action-Oriented AI."
• API Redefined: Why APIs are the "nerves" of Agentic AI, and how to manage them for seamless integration.
• The Governance Layer: Building security frameworks that allow agents to execute tasks while staying within organizational guardrails.
• Trust at Scale: How to provide the oversight and control required for AI to take real-world actions in 2026.
