The Hidden Data Crisis: Why Almost Half of Your Data is Wasted

In today’s Tech Talks, I sit down with Piero Gallucci, VP and General Manager for the UK and Ireland at NetApp. NetApp has evolved from a traditional storage company to an intelligent data infrastructure provider, working with some of the world’s biggest tech firms. And they’ve spotted a worrying trend—41% of stored data is unused or unwanted.

That’s a huge problem. It’s not just a waste of storage, it’s an issue of sustainability, security, and efficiency. Can we fix our relationship with data before it spirals into a full-blown crisis?


Also on the show, Michelle and I chat about Nash Squared’s Digital Leadership Report—and there’s still time to take part! https://insights.nashsquared.com/s/6XBT3X/?source=TechTalks
