AI continues to evolve at a rapid pace; however, many organisations still struggle to extract real impact from the hype. Back by popular demand, former Microsoft Finance Director Oli Deacon will lead an engaging two-hour interactive discussion on AI, helping attendees understand how their organisations can start to adopt AI at scale using commonly available tools - in ways that are ethical, safe, and compliant with AI policy requirements.

With experience managing global teams and shaping multi-billion-pound strategies, Oli specialises in demystifying complex ideas and turning them into practical, high-impact leadership tools. His energetic and thought-provoking sessions focus on applying AI in the real world - without the need for significant investment - leaving leaders and teams inspired, confident, and ready to act.

During the session, we’ll move past the hype and focus on pragmatic approaches that 80% of teams can immediately adopt.
