Ole Olesen-Bagneux - Vice President & Chief Evangelist at Actian

Enterprise Knowledge's Lulit Tesfaye, VP of Knowledge & Data Services, speaks with Ole Olesen-Bagneux, Vice President & Chief Evangelist at Actian. He is a twice-published author with a BA, MA, and PhD in Library and Information Science from the University of Copenhagen, and consults for many large, European companies as an established thought leader on data catalogs and enterprise data management. In their conversation, Lulit and Ole discuss how he turned his childhood hobbies of computers and literature into a career in data, what it means to be a "product-centric evangelist," and his experience writing books about data catalogs and metadata management. They also touch on how semantic priorities are changing within organizations in the age of AI.Check out Ole's books here:The Enterprise Data Catalog (O'Reilly, 2023)Fundamentals of Metadata Management (O'Reilly, 2025)To learn more about Enterprise Knowledge, visit us at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠enterprise-knowledge.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.EK's Knowledge Base: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://enterprise-knowledge.com/knowledge-base/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Contact Us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://enterprise-knowledge.com/contact-us/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/enterprise-knowledge-llc/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter/X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/ekconsulting⁠⁠⁠
