BREAKOUT SESSIONAI GOVERNANCEAI AND MACHINE LEARNINGPROGRAM MANAGEMENTTECHNOLOGY

Move beyond the "what" and into the practical "how." This session bypasses the basic definitions and high-level theories to focus on the architectural and cultural hurdles of deploying AI within established organizations — and how to overcome them. Our experts share the unvarnished truth about scaling internal tools, managing data integrity, and moving from a pilot program to building AI governance as a permanent fixture in the corporate tech stack. 

What you will learn: 

  • Relationship Building with AI + ML Teams + Breaking the "Department of No" Stigma: Learn how to replace friction-heavy manual reviews with a cross-functional "cultural blueprint" that aligns legal, engineering, and security goals to accelerate—rather than stall—AI deployment.
  • Guardrail Automation: Move from static forms and interviews to technical reality by discovering how to embed governance and data integrity controls directly into your software architecture and data pipelines.
  • Infrastructure Automation for Scale: Gain a tactical roadmap for moving past messy "pilot" experiments to building a permanent, scalable AI governance framework that evolves with your organization and runs alongside your teams instead of falling behind.
