Balancing Speed, Efficiency, and Control in the Age of AI

As code, tools, and AI workflows deploy in hours, traditional compliance cycles and manual control reviews are struggling to keep pace with the business. This executive dinner provides an off-the-record forum for security leaders to explore how peers are moving from static policies to continuous AI control monitoring, EU AI Act readiness, and automated sub-processor risk management. Together, we will discuss how proactive CISOs are resolving the tension between speed and oversight to transform security from a GTM bottleneck into a strategic growth engine. Attendees will enjoy a welcome cocktail reception with passed hors d'oeuvres followed by an interactive live cooking demonstration and a multi-course dinner paired with fine wines.
