I am so happy I managed to get this picture taken today... When your role model calls you a friend, you just melt inside. Thank you Rob. Thank you for everythink you've done for the #QlikCommunity. A true leader, a true luminary.

Brief 🧵. This is one of the best things #Qlik does. @ruchowdh.bsky.social is articulate, practical, and deep in #AI, and a founding member of Qlik’s AI Council. @jasondelrey.bsky.social is an experienced implications-of-tech journalist.
Another reason I miss going to #QlikConnect this year
The Day 2 keynote at #QlikConnect is focused on customers - awards, use cases, and customer stories. I always get more out of these than product presentations because it's what's really going on in the industry.
They're doing a "lightning round" with 5 customers talking about their own stories:
Today at #qlikconnect is customer day. This is what I came for! After the keynotes I'll be around the show floor, at least till lunch time.
I would love to hear your story!
This is the exec from NEC telling his story with an interpreter.
Things are still buzzing at #QlikConnect site, but I'm up for almost 21 hours and can barely walk. I call it a day.

Watch for a new series of Tech Talks recorded live at #QlikConnect this week! We'll be publishing them on the Tech Field Day channels soon!
Patric Nordstrom's sessions on visualisations are always an eye candy #QlikConnect
Many sessions about "data product". I hear like 4th speaker to talk about it, every single one made a comparison to food, every single one chose a different food (pie, pizza, chips...). Interesting.

The biggest issue when building reliable AI applications is that they lack context: LLMs will fill in the blanks if you don’t give them enough data. That’s one of the big takeaways from #QlikConnect today!
We collected some of our favorite social media coverage of the #QlikConnect keynote in this "reverse live blog" this morning!

Qlik says their Open Lakehouse, built on Apache Open Iceberg, helps customers with the data ingestion costs.
New product called Data Products. I think this is a set of data that's been curated for a particular project, but I need to go check that out on the show floor.

She's talking about the Qlik Discovery Agent, which enables data to watch itself, scanning continuously using the Analytics Engine to surface value. Qlik Answers is a 24x7x365 on-demand agent for contextual insights.
Now we have Qlik EVP of Products Drew Clarke getting into specifics about what they're seeing in AI, product innovations they're making, and bringing up more customers. #QlikConnect

More from Mike Capone of #Qlik at #QlikConnect:
"AI has to have context, rules, governance and be grounded in understanding." Qlik announced an MCP server previously and now it's ready for use and providing real value.
#Qlik is making a ton of announcements at #QlikConnect:
* Partnering with #ServiceNow
* Improving Agentic Analytics from Qlik Answers to Agentic Action
* Adding Agentic Data Engineering for open data for agents
* Building Agentic Trust with governance capabilities for execution in the agentic era
Up next we have a customer on stage: UPS. He brings up geopolitical events, tariffs, weather, and general disruption to the global supply chain. The biggest thing UPS needed was trust and confidence in their data and platform before piloting AI applications. #QlikConnect
