What to expect

Join an group of technology executives for an informal, AI-focused discussion on how forward-thinking organizations can successfully move from isolated experimentation to responsible, measurable enterprise adoption.

Featuring Karen Pfeifer, Chief AI Officer at Pythian, this session offers a rare opportunity to engage in candid executive peer exchange and get practical tips for shaping your organization’s AI strategy and governance approach.

The conversation will explore areas driving enterprise transformation today:

  • AI strategy: How to effectively prioritize high-value use cases based on key factors like business impact, technical feasibility, data readiness, and compliance risk.
  • AI governance: How to proactively address pressing modern risks, including shadow AI, data leakage, unenforced policies, and rapidly growing audit expectations.
  • Enablement: How establishing approved models, secure data paths, and repeatable design patterns can transform governance into a key growth accelerator rather than a delivery bottleneck.
  • Operating model: How to implement and structure the four practical pillars of effective AI governance—privacy and security, model and output integrity, compliance and audit, and clear organizational accountability.
