Next Event: Singapore

"Managing AI as a Product"

Join me and two outstanding
thought leaders for a provocative look
at the future of Data and AI (as a Product)

Join local legend Ms Shery Chan for a topical and friendly fireside chat, based on her recent work at Standard Chartered
as featured in the Straits Times recently!

Shery Chan has built her career turning complexity into clarity — across aviation, higher education, commerce, and now financial services. As Director of AI Product Strategy & Adoption at Standard Chartered, she leads the responsible scaling of AI across the bank, transforming business challenges into adoption-ready solutions that deliver measurable value without sacrificing trust. Known for blending systems thinking, behavioural insight, and commercial sharpness, she is a passionate advocate for making AI genuinely human — intuitive, explainable, and built to last. Once dubbed a "risky techie," she is proof that the boldest innovations succeed when people remain at the centre.

Challenges range from misaligned expectations to scope creep, from complex RFPs to moving goalposts. How do we as data professionals navigate this environment to deliver maximum
long-term value while still creating a win-win?

"Ethics, Compliance and Data Privacy when using Generative AI: a real-world success story in Education"

The pressure is on to rapidly deploy and maximise the use of Generative AI, and the spotlight is on the CDAIO to get things done. However, there are genuine concerns about data sharing, data privacy, ethics and compliance.

Join us to hear from one thought leader who has wrestled with these challenges and come out the other side with a successful business model that maxmises the value of data and AI while ticking the ethics and compliance boxes in a number of jurisdictions in Europe and Asia.

This is content that I believe you will not find anywhere else.

Join a network of your peers and

as he unpacks his story on using Generative AI ethically and successfully with highly sensitive and personal student data.
