Ewout has a background in AI and data governance. Many organizations have high expectations of Ai, but do not realize that the road to unlocking the potential is by managing datasets as a strategic asset. Ewout helps organizations create strategies and new competencies around data. Over the years, he found that autistic people can be unusually good at seeing details and patterns in datasets. He believes this is a strength many organizations need.
