AI is no longer a future consideration. It is a business reality. Enterprise customers, strategic partners, investors, and acquirers increasingly expect organizations to demonstrate that their use of AI is responsible, compliant, and well-governed. In regulated industries, having an AI strategy is critical, but being able to prove you have the right policies, controls, and safeguards in place is increasingly becoming essential in all nearly all industries.

Join Louise Kennedy, Founder and Managing Attorney of West Hill Technology Counsel, for an insightful session on the practical steps businesses should take to manage AI risk and meet growing compliance expectations. Drawing on real-world experience advising technology companies and business leaders, Louise will discuss how organizations can identify AI tools in use across their business, address legal and operational risks, and prepare for customer due diligence, partnership opportunities, investment discussions, and acquisition transactions.

This session will cover the essential elements of an AI compliance framework, including AI usage policies, intellectual property considerations, data privacy and security obligations, and contractual requirements related to AI. Attendees will learn how a proactive approach to AI governance can create a competitive advantage and open doors to new business opportunities.

You’ll learn:

  • Why AI compliance is becoming a business requirement, not a nice-to-have.
  • How to identify and assess AI tools used within your organization.
  • What customers, partners, and acquirers expect to see during due diligence. Key considerations around data privacy, security, and intellectual property.
  • Practical actions you can take now to strengthen your AI governance program.

Whether you’re already leveraging AI or just beginning your journey, this session will equip you with actionable guidance to help your organization innovate with confidence while staying ahead of evolving expectations.
