About this event

A one-day summit for the people who own AI strategy inside large organisations, at the InterContinental on the Greenwich peninsula. Registration and breakfast from 08:00, specialist tracks from 11:00, happy hour from 17:00. The speakers are operators rather than vendors: Ha Cole, Chief AI Officer at Microsoft; Kirstine Dale, Chief AI Officer at the Met Office; Bala Viswanath, CTO for identity and fraud prevention at Experian; Nidhi Sharma, global head of engineering for AI and incubation at Just Eat Takeaway; Anton Hinel, VP of machine learning research at American Express; Anuj Agarwal, head of agentic and AI product at NatWest Group; and Stuart McMeechan, EMEA applied engineering leader at OpenAI. Passes are complimentary but approval-gated, and the organisers say applicants from technology vendor organisations may not be eligible. Why go: the enterprise-AI conversation at the level where budgets are set, with the Met Office and NatWest describing systems already running rather than roadmaps. Best for AI, data and engineering leaders inside large organisations.
