Day 2 | 15th October
9:20 AM KEYNOTE INTERACTIVE: Tech Governance as a Growth Engine: How can you turn governance into an AI accelerator to drive safe, scalable innovation?
- How can you reframe AI governance from a compliance barrier into an enabler that reduces friction and unlocks faster experimentation across teams?
- How can you empower internal champions through structured programs (eg. AI Ninjas) to drive innovation within clear guardrails rather than creating shadow AI risk?
- How can you distinguish between quick AI wins and deeper structural blockers using frameworks like 'patch vs. cure' to prioritise scalable transformation?
- What does this look like in practice across a complex, federated retail portfolio with different levels of tech maturity?
After a 20-minute case study, you will take part in an interactive discussion where attendees can ask questions, share experiences, and explore practical applications with your peers.
