The Inside Scoop
July 2026
Dear Partner,
The pace of innovation in AI is accelerating, and customers are looking for trusted partners who can turn opportunity into results. That’s why EVOLVE26 is an essential event: it’s where the latest data and AI innovations, insights, and opportunities come together.
The series kicks off on August 20 in Singapore with a powerful lineup of product innovations, customer stories, and expert perspectives. You won’t want to miss keynote speaker Sol Rashidi, the world’s first Chief AI Officer. Named one of the Top 100 AI Thought Leaders, Sol will share her perspective on turning AI strategy into measurable business outcomes.
I encourage you to register for an event near you and watch this partner video for a feel of the experience.
In this edition, you’ll also find resources to help you engage customers, expand your technical expertise, and create new opportunities with Cloudera.
In Partnership,
Michelle
