Event Overview:
AI governance is shifting, not because regulations have suddenly become strict, but because AI has moved from experiments to everyday workflows. People are using personal AI tools, AI is embedded inside SaaS platforms, and AI agents are starting to take actions, not just generate content.
Join Aligne Technologies at IBM York Road on 8th April to learn how you can enable AI adoption without losing control.
Hear expert insight from Ian Francis, Product Manager for IBM watsonx.governance; learn where Shadow AI actually shows up, why traditional governance and IT controls struggle to detect it, and how Agentic AI changes the governance game; and leave with a practical starter model for GenAI governance.
Designed for CIOs, CISOs, CTOs and others trying to scale GenAI safely, register to attend via the form below.
