The Analytics New Year's aperitif 2026 at the Hive
A strategic outlook for the data-driven year.
2026 is just around the corner - and with it the opportunity to future-proof your data strategy.
At the Analytics New Year's Apéro 2026, we will set the course together for a data-driven year in which your business can take off strategically.
The focus is on the platforms that currently offer the greatest potential: the SAP Business Data Cloud (BDC)the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Databricks. We highlight the latest developments that are already bringing data-driven planning and AI into practice today
Agenda Sneak Peek
We look forward to the scientifically sound insight of:
Prof. Dr. Simeon Schudy,
who sheds light on the complexity and potential of AI from an economic perspective. He addresses key strategic questions:
How do we enable employees not only to use AI tools, but also to integrate them into business processes in a targeted and effective manner?
Which value creation steps are suitable for "outsourcing to AI" in order to optimize strategic decisions?
As usual, our s-peers experts will also provide inspiring insights from the field. The New Year's aperitif is their honest, well-founded insight into the opportunities and challenges of data-driven work - because only those who understand the complexity and use it strategically can successfully shape the digital transformation.
Location: The Hive Club Zurich sets the analytics beat.
With its unique sound setup, the Hive offers the perfect atmosphere for the start of the year.
Here, where the beat usually drops, we will show on February 5, 2026 which analytics drops in BDC, GCP and Databricks 2026 will determine the rhythm and performance in your data business.
Cheers, to an exciting data year 2026!
