Are You READY for the Future of Data Management?

Data is at the core of today’s biggest innovations, from AI to real-time decision-making, but many organizations still struggle to turn it into real value. Fragmented systems and outdated architectures that weren’t designed for modern analytics or AI often stand in the way.

InterSystems READY 2026 focuses on the next wave of enterprise AI: moving beyond standalone models to intelligent, integrated systems powered by generative AI, autonomous agents, and agentic workflows. The conference will explore how organizations are operationalizing AI through technologies like RAG, vector search, and real-time data orchestration to enable applications that don’t just generate insights but also take action.

Join us April 27–30, 2026 at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in National Harbor, MD to explore how modern data platforms, interoperability, and AI are shaping the next generation of enterprise applications.

Through keynotes, demonstrations, and breakout sessions, attendees will see how a modern data platform can integrate, process, and analyze information in real time. Organizations across healthcare, financial services, supply chain, and the public sector are using a modern data platform to integrate data across complex environments, support real-time analytics, and operationalize AI. Some of the AI-focused keynote speakers include:

• Dr. Philip Payne, AMIA Board Chair & President, will talk about how LLMs are indispensable in healthcare.
• Garry Kasparov, World Chess Champion, will share his view on human/AI collaboration.
• Aryam Vázquez, Chief Economist, Export-Import Bank of the United States, will talk about funding of AI in the global economy.
• Tobias Zwingmann, global thought leader in AI, will discuss AI profitability.

One of the most valuable aspects of READY is the opportunity to hear directly from the people building and operating real-world systems. Speakers will include executives, architects, developers, and customers who are tackling some of the most complex data challenges across industries, exploring topics such as:

• Designing modern data architectures.
• Integrating data across distributed ecosystems.
• Building applications that combine transactions and analytics.
• Deploying AI-driven solutions in production environments.

These insights go beyond high-level strategy. Many sessions dive into the architectural decisions, implementation challenges, and lessons learned from large-scale deployments.

For many participants, the ability to engage directly with developers and engineers from InterSystems is a highlight of the event. These conversations provide valuable insights into best practices, performance optimization, upcoming features/capabilities, and development strategies. Hands-on learning opportunities, include:

• Technical labs and workshops.
• Architecture deep dives.
• Developer demonstrations.
• Interactive sessions with product engineers.

Although READY 2026 is rooted in technology, the event is equally focused on real-world industry challenges. Healthcare providers, financial institutions, supply chain practitioners, and government agencies all face similar issues when it comes to managing data. These include fragmented systems, complex integrations, and the need for real-time insights.

At READY 2026, attendees will hear how top performing organizations are addressing these challenges using modern data platforms and interoperability frameworks.

Beyond the sessions and workshops, READY 2026 is also an opportunity to connect with a global community of developers, architects, and technology leaders. Throughout the event, attendees will be able to:

• Network with peers facing similar technical challenges
• Meet directly with product teams and engineers
• Explore partnerships within the broader ecosystem
• Share experiences and best practices

Understanding where data platforms, AI capabilities, and interoperability standards are headed can be critical for teams designing systems that need to scale and evolve over time. At READY 2026, attendees will get an inside look at upcoming innovations, the future direction of InterSystems data platforms, and opportunities to connect with our ecosystem through:

• Sessions: 3 ½ days of sessions geared to the needs of software developers and managers.
• Inspiring keynotes: Presentations that challenge your assumptions and highlight new possibilities. Plus, presentations about what’s on the InterSystems roadmap, so you’ll be ready to go when new tech is released.
