Welcome to Unify: Where AI, Data, and Cloud Converge for Enterprise Innovation
Nasuni’s Kelsie Marks discusses the company’s new industry event series Unify, focused on powering enterprise innovation through AI and the cloud.

Nasuni is constantly seeking out opportunities to educate the market and foster enterprise innovation, which makes us extremely proud to unveil our next big endeavor: Unify, a global series of in-person and remote events designed to help enterprises align their data infrastructure with the accelerating demands of artificial intelligence.
As AI moves from hype to operational imperative, one truth has become increasingly clear: AI is only as powerful as the data behind it. Yet, many enterprises are struggling to find the right infrastructure to support their future-proofing goals. Nasuni’s Unify event series responds to this challenge by helping organizations everywhere understand how a unified file data platform is essential for AI readiness, cybersecurity resilience, and long-term business success.
Why Unify — and Why Now?
The 2025 technology landscape for data and IT leaders is both promising and perilous. According to Nasuni’s latest research, 92% of organizations have found additional budget to fund AI initiatives, with 71% raising entirely new funds and another 22% reallocating from existing priorities.
But here’s the catch: only 20% say their data is fully AI-ready.
Not surprisingly, this disconnect is a bit of a red flag. As enterprises ramp up investment, they must also evolve their data foundations to match. Unify was created to bridge that gap by providing IT professionals and business leaders with the frameworks, tools, and success stories needed to build resilient, AI-optimized data infrastructures.
The Unify Advantage: More Than an Event Series
Running from June through October, Unify will stop in six global cities — Boston, Dallas, Los Angeles, London, Chicago, and Paris — as well as feature multiple expert-led virtual webinars. Each city stop will unite industry veterans, forward-thinking Nasuni customers, and technology partners like Microsoft, AWS, and SHI for a deep exploration of hybrid cloud innovation.
Key themes include:
- Data protection and cyber resilience: A must in an era when 53% of firms say their data is not backed up, immutable, or easily recoverable, and organizations take an average of five weeks to recover from cyberattacks.
- Architecting for AI scale: With AI at the top of spending priorities for 47% of enterprises, it’s time to get serious about global file systems, AI-compatible storage, and edge-ready data delivery.
- Closing the AI readiness gap: Only 1 in 5 firms feel confident in their data’s AI-readiness, a challenge compounded by siloed architectures and disconnected storage strategies.
Attendees will also witness live demonstrations of the Nasuni File Data Platform — a cloud-native, global file system that helps organizations unify their unstructured data across sites and clouds, reducing costs and enabling innovation.
Can’t Make It in Person? Unify is Everywhere.

- July 15: 5 AI Trends to Watch — Keep your architecture ahead of the curve
- August 19: Safety First — Secure your organization’s data and ensure AI compliance

Each session offers takeaways that go beyond theory, delivering practical advice for building the scalable, secure data environments AI needs to thrive.
