The 2025 Chief Data Officer Study: The AI Multiplier Effect – CDOTrends

While 72% of CEOs identify proprietary data as their primary source for unlocking the value of Generative AI, only 26% of chief data officers are confident their current data estate can support new AI-driven revenue streams. This “value gap” shows that organizations are accumulating massive volumes of unstructured data but lack the specialized infrastructure to make it agentic AI-ready. CDOs need to shift from basic data management to engineering a high-integrity, AI-first data architecture to close this gap.
To identify how leaders are overcoming these barriers, the IBM Institute for Business Value surveyed 1,700 CDOs and senior data leaders. The research examines how a group of leading organizations achieves higher ROI by pivoting away from data relocation costs and instead bringing AI models directly to their data. Download the full report to explore the framework that high-performing CDOs are using to transform their data strategy into a scalable engine for business value.
