Sovereign by Design: The London Preview
An inclusive Breakfast & Learn session for AI movers, builders, shakers, and decision makers.
The most interesting AI conversations right now aren't about who has the biggest model. They're about who's building, who's trusted, and who actually gets used.
Ahead of DMEXCO, we're gathering a small group in central London for breakfast and a working conversation on independent and sovereign AI — how it's being built here in the UK, who's making the integration calls inside companies, and what it takes to earn enough trust that people actually adopt what you've built.
Brought into a room small enough for real exchange, this is a preview of the themes we're taking to the DMEXCO stage next week!
PANEL: Sovereign by Design: Women Building the AI Europe Can Trust
Innovation Stage - Hall 8 | Wed 23 September 4:00pm
What we'll discuss during our London session:
How independent AI systems and solutions are being built and integrated across verticals and networks — and what that looks like in the UK specifically
Who's designing and building them, and what really shapes adoption inside a company or product
How these systems are engineered to hold trust, not just claim it
Where AI-powered creativity, consumer trust, performance and responsibility intersect
New data, first look
Through our partnership with Kantar, we'll share brand-new consumer research on trust in AI across the UK, Germany, Italy, Spain and France, presented in London before it goes to the DMEXCO stage.
Kantar's framing sets up the morning: who builds AI matters, but who trusts and uses AI matters even more. Today only 40% of consumers trust AI with complex tasks, and Europe carries a measurable gender gap in adoption. That's a market you're leaving on the table.
Who's in the room:
- People building AI-powered tools and solutions with intent.
- Founders and technical leads at independent and sovereign AI companies
- Decision makers owning global AI integration and rollout inside their organisations.
- Leaders building the governance and frameworks for safe, inclusive AI development and usage
