AI Salon Sydney | Building AI with Trust & Security
As organisations and startups move from exploring AI to applying it in the real world, great technology is only part of the journey.
How do you build secure AI systems? Navigate legal considerations? Earn the trust of customers, investors and partners?
Join us for the August edition of AI Salon Sydney as we bring together founders, industry experts and the AI community to explore the practical foundations of building AI businesses with confidence.
Whether you're building your first AI startup, scaling an existing venture, or simply curious about the future of AI, this event is designed to help you connect, learn and grow.
Meet the speakers
This edition brings together experts and founders tackling these challenges from three very different perspectives:
⚖️ Geoff McGrath | Ashurst Perkins Coie
Practical legal considerations for working with AI: from AI policies and use of AI tools to IP protection and emerging risks
🛡️ Frank Yoo | Simbian AI
How AI is reshaping cybersecurity, and how AI-powered security can help organisations stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated threats.
🔎 Tim Lea | Fidestra.ai
Building trust in a world of synthetic media, exploring how organisations can detect, verify and respond when what we see and hear can no longer be taken at face value.
Three perspectives. One increasingly important question: how do we build and use AI with confidence?
This edition of AI Salon Sydney is delivered in partnership with Ashurst Perkins Coie, with UTS Startups as our venue partner.
