Data and AI are rapidly converging as organizations work to transform raw information into meaningful insight, automation, and measurable business outcomes. At the same time, the rise of generative and agentic AI is placing increased pressure on data quality, governance, and accessibility, making real world conversations more important than ever. Events like Qlik Connect provide a critical forum for practitioners, customers, and technology leaders to share what is truly working in today’s evolving data landscape.

At Qlik Connect 2026, taking place April 13 to 15 in Orlando, the Tech Field Day Experience, led by Stephen Foskett of The Futurum Group, will deliver comprehensive coverage of the event. The experience begins Tuesday morning at 8:30 AM Eastern with a keynote live blog, presented in a unique reverse live blog format. Delegates will share their perspectives in real time across social media, with curated insights brought together on the Tech Field Day website to provide a multi angle view of the keynote as it unfolds.

Throughout the event, Tech Field Day delegates will engage directly with Qlik leaders, customers, partners, and practitioners, capturing valuable insights into how organizations are applying data and AI in real world scenarios. Interviews with key voices across the Qlik ecosystem will be recorded and published following the event, offering deeper analysis into the company’s advancements in analytics, AI, and data platforms. These discussions build on ongoing conversations from the Tech Field Day podcast, where topics like agentic AI in business intelligence and the critical role of data quality are already being explored.

Following Qlik Connect, Tech Field Day will release additional coverage, including a delegate roundtable and in depth editorial analysis hosted on Techstrong Group. This continued reporting will extend the conversation beyond the event, delivering actionable insights for IT leaders, data professionals, and business decision makers navigating the evolving AI driven landscape.

To follow along in real time, audiences are encouraged to connect with Tech Field Day and its delegates on social media, particularly LinkedIn, where live insights and discussions will be actively shared.
