In 2023, many business intelligence conferences returned to in-person events. While some events slated for 2024 are still virtual or hybrid, this year's top business intelligence events have something in common from Spain, to France, Italy, Japan, Australia and Las Vegas in the United States. Every data summit offers data analysts, entrepreneurs, and BI professionals insight on with trending information from exhibitors and industry experts, plus collaboration and networking opportunities with professionals in the field.

Some great strides forward in business intelligence last year included:

  • More decision-makers began using BI insights as actionable information.

  • AI and machine learning (ML) grew both in ability and in acceptance.

  • Decision-makers evaluated using external data to supplement internal data to assist in the decision-making process.

  • Real-time decision-making capabilities were bolstered by the giant strides made in AI & ML.

2024's events already show promise to be inspiring and innovative, as you'll see in the BI in-person conferences and virtual events highlighted below.

On tap for discussions include top business intelligence challenges facing industries, such as data governance, data silos, and managing self-service BI tools, as well as the latest trends and ways leaders are approaching business intelligence in general for 2023, such as:

  • Supporting decision-making by fostering improved data literacy.

  • Using improved frameworks to manage data quality.

  • Enhancing fraud prevention tactics with predictive analytics.

  • Embracing cloud services.

  • Embracing and putting mobile BI to good use.

In the coming years, companies will look for ways to simplify their use of business intelligence and analytics tools. The coming technology evolution will empower professionals to make better sense of data and help drive daily operations.

With the ability to uncover valuable data-driven insights, cutting-edge approaches like digital transformation and others that experts plan to present at this year’s data science conferences have the potential to boost growth across all sectors. One key factor in this evolution will be the increasing use of AI-powered business intelligence, which will allow experts to make more informed decisions and plan for substantial expansion.

How Integrate.io Helps You Prepare for BI Events

Moving data to business intelligence tools is sure to be one of the hottest topics at these in-person and online events. Integrate.io is an Extract, Transform, Load (ETL), no-code data pipeline platform that can extract data from disparate sources, transform it, and load it into a data warehouse for analytics. Thanks to lightning-fast ELT & CDC, you can generate real-time reports about day-to-day functions such as sales, customer service, marketing, and financial management.  

Integrate.io's no-code/low-code ETL solution makes it an excellent choice for BI professionals who don't have extensive data engineering resources. You can transfer data to a warehouse with native connectors in minutes, removing the need to build complex big data pipelines from scratch — and, while it helps, you don't even need coding knowledge.

Other Integrate.io benefits include a simple pricing model that charges you for the number of connectors used — not your data volume. You can operationalize your warehouse and move data to other systems for improved operational analytics. Integrate.io's drag-and-drop interface makes data integration easy.
