Join this CIO Dinner to benchmark strategies with peers on AI adoption while maintaining trust, resilience and control of data. 

Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving from experimentation to enterprise-wide deployment, becoming a critical component of business strategy. IT leaders are under increasing pressure to scale AI adoption, drive innovation and improve productivity, while ensuring data security, regulatory compliance, cyber resilience and organisational readiness. As AI becomes embedded across business processes, maintaining trust in data, systems and outcomes has never been more important. 

How can IT leaders accelerate AI adoption across their organisation while maintaining trust, resilience, governance and control of the data that powers intelligent systems? 

Join Microsoft and Veeam for this executive roundtable dinner, bringing together senior IT and technology leaders to explore how organisations can confidently scale AI initiatives while strengthening data protection, cyber resilience and operational trust. Through peer-led discussions and shared experiences, attendees will gain practical insights into building AI-ready organisations that can innovate responsibly, securely and sustainably.
