Overview

AI is changing every part of society and business, opening up new opportunities and risks for boards and directors. Off the back of our inaugural event in July 2024, join us for this one-day event that will help you govern AI effectively in your organisation. You’ll hear from leading experts and practitioners about what AI is and what it can do, how to understand the wider and regulatory context for AI, and how to use best practices and frameworks for governing AI in your organisation. 

You’ll also get to network and work with other directors and boards, who are dealing with similar opportunities and challenges with AI.  

Whether you’re a director or board member of a small business, a large corporation, or a not-for-profit organisation, this one day event will give you the tools and strategies to lead and govern AI with confidence and skill.  

Don't miss this opportunity to stay on top of the trends and get your organisation ready for the future with AI.

Michael Webster

Michael took up the role of Privacy Commissioner in July 2022. 

Commissioner Webster’s career has focused on enabling and driving good governance, the promotion of democratic rights and values, the development and application of codes of conduct and behaviour, and working to ensure compliance with both statutory provisions and constitutional conventions.

Since taking up the role, Commissioner Webster has focused on ensuring the Office of the Privacy Commissioner is equipped to deliver on its vision of making privacy a core focus for agencies, in order to protect the privacy of individuals, enable agencies to achieve their own objectives, and safeguard a free and democratic society.  That has seen a strengthening of the compliance and enforcement function, a focus on delivering on the Office’s regulatory stewardship responsibilities and advocating for a regulatory framework and Privacy Act that’s fit for purpose in the digital age.
