CDO Breakfast with SAPPI

How Sappi Turned Their Data Platform Into a new Revenue Stream:
Insights into Sappi's Data & GenAl journey

The European manufacturing industry is facing the perfect storm with high energy prices, increased regulation, unpredictable global tariffs and skilled resource scarcity.

Still, Sappi decided to take a leap of faith and invest in an energy analytics journey that turns energy assets into revenue streams instead of liabilities.
During this breakfast session, we will focus on the data story behind the technical use case and discuss how organizations across industries can draw inspiration from this approach.
