If you’re navigating how artificial intelligence fits into your strategy, this is your chance to connect with peers, exchange experiences, and shape your approach to adoption.

Artificial intelligence is no longer a distant promise - it’s here, transforming industries, challenging traditional business models, and raising important questions about trust, regulation, and human impact. But adoption is rarely straightforward. Organisations must balance opportunity with risk, weigh innovation against compliance, and understand how to integrate AI in ways that deliver real value.

This quarter’s forum explores the realities of moving from experimentation to implementation through insightful talks from industry expert speakers.

Delegates can expect:

  • Practical insights into how businesses are embedding AI across sectors, and what challenges they are facing.
  • Considerations and advice on how to maximise scale-up strategies when building AI-centred businesses and innovations.
  • Investment, grant funding, and business support outlooks on where capital is flowing in the AI landscape.
  • Legal and regulatory perspectives on intellectual property, governance, and accountability.

Through a mix of keynotes and interactive discussions, the forum will provide a space to share experiences, debate challenges, and chart the opportunities ahead on the AI adoption curve.
