We’re pleased to announce that Ortecha, the practitioner-led data, AI and technology consultancy that champions ‘Human first’, has entered a strategic partnership with Data Graphs, an AI-powered knowledge graph platform, to solve one of the biggest problems facing enterprise AI adoption: context.
The partnership brings together Data Graphs’ enterprise semantic layer platform with Ortecha’s specialist expertise in data management, governance and enterprise architecture.
Together, the two companies will help enterprises create shared business context across systems so AI agents, automation and analytics can operate with greater accuracy, trust and scale.
The partnership is designed to help organisations move from disconnected AI pilots to operational AI capability.
“Most enterprises don’t have a connectivity problem anymore. They have a meaning problem,” said Fabio Colasanti, Partner & Chief Data Officer at Data Graphs.
“The same business terms often mean different things across systems, teams and processes. That fragmentation creates confusion for people and failure for AI. This partnership helps organisations fix that foundation properly.”
Data Graphs provides a shared semantic and knowledge graph layer designed to unify enterprise context across systems. This creates a canonical business model that both people and AI can work from consistently.
Ortecha brings deep expertise in enterprise data strategy, governance, architecture and operating models. The company works directly with organisations to define, govern and operationalise those shared models in complex real-world environments.
“AI needs context, context needs structure. Data Graphs makes designing context and giving structure to data much easier,” said Charles Ivie, Partner & Head of Data & AI Engineering at Ortecha.
“One of the biggest barriers to AI realising its potential in productivity, is the high barrier of learning required to reach for adopting technologies like Knowledge Graphs. For subject matter experts to contribute to how domains are described accurately is vital for a well-functioning data practice of 2026. Data Graphs makes adoption of Graph easy for subject matter experts.”
The partnership will initially focus on enterprises operating in highly regulated and complex environments, including financial services, insurance, retail and large-scale technology organisations.
Areas of collaboration will include:
- Enterprise semantic modelling
- Knowledge graph implementation
- AI-ready data foundations
- Data governance and operating models
- Enterprise architecture and contextual modelling
- AI operationalisation and scale-up support
Both companies share a practical approach to enterprise transformation. The focus is on building operational capability, not producing shelfware or disconnected proofs of concept.
The partnership launches immediately across the UK and international markets.
About Data Graphs
Data Graphs is an AI-native knowledge graph platform that gives enterprises a single, shared understanding of their business – so that systems, teams, and AI all work from the same definitions. Without this shared foundation, AI and agentic AI initiatives stall: tools draw on inconsistent meaning across the organisation, and the result is unreliable answers, failed automation, and poor decisions. Data Graphs solves this by creating a trusted business model that connects information across the enterprise and its wider ecosystem, turning fragmented data into a foundation that AI can actually run on. The platform is used by organisations in the public sector, media and publishing, and manufacturing, and is designed for data-intensive enterprises in sectors including financial services.
