Understanding the trade-offs

End of Day Wrap-Up

• A final panel on:
  • The themes that emerged.
  • The practical trade-offs between progress, usability and precision.
• Panelists:
  • With different perspectives and experiences.
  • Who recognize the challenges.
• An audience:
  • To pose questions.
  • Share experiences.
  • Propose alternative perspectives.

Covering:

• Approaches that help secure leadership and organizational buy-in for a knowledge graph strategy:
  • What is most convincing.
  • What arguments and approaches don’t work well.
• Balancing adoption and progress:
  • The relative value of making something visible and usable quickly, even if it is incomplete, versus prioritizing comprehensive coverage and precision from the outset?
• A data-consumption perspective:
  • Usability and interaction – what’s important when semantic data is put into practice.
  • What changes when data is consumed by a broader organization rather than a single team?

Discussing:

How can semantic projects balance the need to demonstrate progress quickly with the longer-term goal of building something comprehensive, precise and genuinely useful?
