About this listen
In this episode of The Databricks Diaries, Dan Thornton sits down with Richard Shaw, Technical General Manager for UK & Ireland at Databricks, to explore what it really takes for organisations to become AI-ready. With over six years at Databricks, Richard shares a behind-the-scenes view of scaling a cloud-native platform from startup roots to a global data and AI powerhouse.
The conversation dives into how Databricks partners with customers beyond technology, helping them navigate cultural change, skills gaps, and data maturity on their AI journeys. The episode also covers how Databricks works with partners at scale, keeps teams continuously upskilled, and uses its own platform internally to innovate faster. Packed with real-world insights from the front line, this is a must-listen for data leaders and executives looking to turn AI ambition into business impact.
