Is Your AI Strategy Built for Defense and Delivery?

AI is already being weaponized against your business, making it critical to put AI on your side in defense. The central message is simple: if AI is being used against you, it must also be working for you. At the same time, boards are pressing leaders to show where AI can be applied safely to drive real business outcomes.

This invitation-only, in-person forum convenes experts and executive peers—including CEOs, CIOs, CISOs, and other C-suite leaders—to explore practical, high-impact AI use cases. The goal is to provide valuable thought leadership in a credible, non-salesy manner.

The event begins with 30 minutes of networking and a catered lunch, followed by a one-hour panel discussion and live Q&A.
