Collibra

Collibra The enterprise standard for AI context and control Headquartered in New York and Brussels, we make data easy to find, understand and use—confidently.

Collibra empowers Data Citizens to take command of data and AI, transforming possibilities into progress
Data and AI are only as powerful as the trust behind them. Organizations today face growing complexity—hybrid ecosystems, fragmented governance and rising regulatory demands. Collibra delivers a complete platform for data and AI governance, giving teams the visibility, control and confidence to turn data into a trusted asset. https://www.collibra.com/company/who-we-are

A catalog only works if the metadata behind it is actually there.

Maiquel Sampaio de Melo from IDB Invest learned that the hard way while modernizing his organization's data stack. His team built a new lakehouse and rolled out new tools, but ran into the same old problem. Tribal knowledge was still trapped in people's heads instead of documented in the platform.

To fix it, he built a clear, repeatable standard for how the team writes data set descriptions. That's the unglamorous governance work that makes every AI initiative built on top of it trustworthy.

72% of AI decision-makers say when their organization's AI initiatives fall short, the root cause is almost always a poor data foundation.

That's the headline finding from The 2026 Hallucination Tax Report, a survey conducted by The Harris Poll on behalf of Collibra.

Nine in ten organizations are deploying autonomous AI agents right now. 87% say their teams regularly re-verify context for those agents before trusting the output, and 76% have hit critical roadblocks trying to move from pilot into production over the past year.

The pattern is consistent across every question we asked. Teams are moving fast on agents while the underlying data foundation hasn't caught up, and the gap is showing up as cost, delay and risk. Collibra helps enterprises close that gap, giving AI agents the trusted, governed data foundation they need to move from pilot to production with confidence.

Your database is governed. Your Slack threads, PDFs and policy docs? Not so much.

Most of the context your AI agents pull from has no owner, no freshness date, no lineage. And agents don't flag that. They just answer with total confidence.

Kevin Petrie, VP Research at BARC, and Isaac Sacolick, President of StarCIO, unpack what it actually takes to govern the documents and chats your agents depend on. Moderated by Reece Griffiths, Field CTO at Collibra.

Data lineage that used to take weeks now takes minutes. That's the shift Nationwide UK made to its data governance foundation.

As the data footprint for the UK's largest building society grew more complex, standards like BCBS 239 and IFRS 9 continued to require significant manual effort and point-in-time assessments.

With Collibra Data Catalog, Data Lineage and Data Quality & Observability integrated natively with Databricks, Nationwide has reduced the manual effort involved in tracking critical data and is building more automated, continuous governance controls.

Teams now know what data is available 90% faster. Data quality checks that once ran periodically now run continuously, saving roughly 75% of the time previously spent. And BCBS 239 compliance oversight is evolving from manual reviews towards more continuous and automated monitoring.

Speed and trust used to be a trade-off. Nationwide is proving they don't have to be. https://ow.ly/AV9b50ZLTVv

Agents that build. Metadata that moves. Data quality that governs itself. September's product drop is doing a lot.

Here's a look:

🤖 Data Products Builder Agent: Point it at a table, a description or an existing contract. This AI agent drafts a fully governed Data Product, pulling context Collibra already has. Nothing publishes until you approve it.

🔗 Expanded Outbound Integrations: Curated metadata now flows out to Microsoft Fabric, Databricks Unity Catalog, Google Dataplex, Snowflake Inc. and Amazon Web Services SageMaker. Definitions, classifications and certification status render natively wherever your data lives.

🧩 Data Quality tools for MCP: A business rule or data product's contract becomes a meaningful data quality monitor, automatically. No SQL required.

"Governance is the whole house. Privacy is one important room in that house."

Fatimh Al-Jaber, Head of AI and Data Governance at Ooredoo Qatar, explains an important distinction most people blur.

While data governance keeps information trustworthy, privacy specifically exists to protect personal and sensitive information and maintain compliance. You need both.

On the AI side, Ooredoo Qatar is formalizing accountability to local regulations so they can prove their AI is governed and fair, not just effective. Because in a culture where trust runs deep, responsible data handling is central to the brand itself.

Context or control? Wrong question.

Our CEO Felix Van de Maele says enterprises keep treating this as a choice, when the real risk is picking one and neglecting the other.

Give an agent context without control and it understands your business perfectly, then acts with zero accountability. Give it control without context and you get a fully audited agent that's confidently wrong.

Gartner predicts over 40% of agentic AI projects will be canceled by 2027. Most will trace back to one of these gaps.

Enterprises that get this right build context and control as one system, not two separate projects.

We've spent years telling organizations the data layer decides whether AI scales. We believe the IDC MarketScape just confirmed it.

IDC MarketScape evaluated 15 providers in the 2026 Data Intelligence Platform Software Vendor Assessment, and named us a Leader.

Beyond the recognition, we believe the IDC MarketScape uncovered a pattern every enterprise with complex data should pay attention to. Companies with mature, governed data products are far more likely to successfully deploy generative AI and autonomous agents into production, with better financial and operational results.

We believe that's the case for us as the enterprise AI control plane. One unified metadata foundation, governing context and control across every model, dataset and agent.
