2005 to 2030 in 25 Minutes: From Reporting a Business to Running One - AVIV Group

‍

Overview

In this keynote from the CMO & CAIO Inspired Summit at Syon Park, London, in October 2026, Kshira Saagar of AVIV Group, which runs online real estate portals across Europe, describes a business still run as if it were 2005: days of waiting for numbers, debates over whose dashboard is right, and a few minutes of decision-making squeezed into the end of the meeting.

Kshira sets out what a 2030 business looks like, with metrics that are faster, deeper and smarter, experimentation at scale and automated business reviews, and explains how to get there through three Rs: rebuild, retire and retrain.

Key takeaways

  • Slow, disputed reporting is archaeology, not analytics: by the time a number is dug up, the moment to decide has passed.
  • Rebuild your data plumbing before adding agents; AI on top of poor data produces fluent nonsense that is confidently wrong.
  • Retire old rituals such as the multi-day monthly deck and the request ticket queue, rather than using AI to run the same rituals faster.
  • Retrain AI like a new hire, with a semantic layer that understands how people describe metrics and context drawn from meetings, tickets and documents.
  • In a 2030 meeting, the numbers are agreed in minutes and the rest of the time is spent deciding what to do next.
