The AI experimentation phase is over. Digital-native companies pulling ahead are moving beyond fragmented architectures and “vibe-coded” prototypes to governed AI products customers can rely on.

For fast-growing Australian tech companies, the challenge is scaling data and AI without constantly re-platforming, adding ETL, or burdening engineers with glue code. The advantage lies in a unified, interoperable foundation that helps teams ship intelligent product experiences faster.

This forum brings engineering and platform leaders together to share how they are building on Databricks: using Lakebase to connect operational and analytical data, Unity Catalog and Unity AI Gateway to govern AI at scale, and Genie to give every team trusted access to fresh data and AI.
