ABOUT
A follow-up from our very successful event last season!
Artificial intelligence is reshaping industries across the globe, and London is no exception. We explore the latest AI trends impacting local sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, and education, and examine how organizations are leveraging AI to drive efficiency and innovation. We also discuss why governing AI effectively is essential for long-term success. Many organizations struggle to manage AI responsibly, leading to avoidable risks, cost, and inefficiencies. Learn what organizations tend to get wrong and learn about three key strategies to ensure AI is governed in a way that supports sustainable growth and minimizes ethical, legal, and operational risks.
