OpenMetadata is coming to New York!

Hello New York,

We’re bringing the OpenMetadata community together in the heart of New York — and there’s no better way to do that than meeting face-to-face!

Join us for an evening dedicated to real conversations about metadata, governance, data quality, lineage, and how semantic intelligence enables organizations to move AI agents and systems from pilots to production. The biggest failure mode isn’t the model, but the lack of shared meaning. Without clear definitions, lineage, and policy context, AI systems guess. OpenMetadata turns metadata into machine-readable context that both humans and AI can rely on.

What to expect:

• A deep-dive session on OpenMetadata in action
We’ll explore real-world use cases, governance challenges, and how teams are operationalizing metadata across modern data stacks — including how semantic metadata graphs, AI SDKs, and MCP-enabled tools help AI systems understand enterprise data with context.

• Open discussion + community exchange
This is designed to be interactive. Whether you’re actively using OpenMetadata or just exploring it, we’d love to hear your perspective, challenges, and lessons learned — especially as organizations evolve from traditional governance initiatives toward AI-enabled workflows and automation.

• Appetizers, beer & wine + relaxed networking
After the session, we’ll keep things informal — a light apéritif, drinks, and meaningful conversations with fellow data practitioners building the next generation of intelligent data platforms.

Exact location will be shared closer to the event date.

This is an opportunity for the New York OpenMetadata community to come together, strengthen connections, and accelerate real momentum around metadata and governance in 2026 — and to explore how AI agents and semantics scales data management and modern AI.
