Arvind Subramanian, Executive Vice President for Global Enterprise Strategy and Incubation and Managing Director for India at Iron Mountain, appeared on the NASSCOM Insights LeaderTalk podcast in August 2026 to discuss data readiness for AI adoption. He stated that AI readiness begins with information readiness rather than technology readiness, arguing that enterprises should organize, govern, and make data accessible before deploying AI tools. He also said that most enterprises do not have a data problem but a visibility problem, noting that up to 90% of enterprise data is "dark," meaning it is siloed in legacy systems, in unreadable formats, or fragmented across databases. Subramanian emphasized that trust in data must precede trust in infrastructure and that accessibility should be coupled with governance, including privacy protections and redaction of personally identifiable information. He also referenced India's data protection act and rules as topical context for these discussions.
