CREAPLUS AI Day - Secure Artificial Intelligence in Demanding and Regulated Environments
What to Expect
A half-day conference for senior leaders navigating AI adoption in regulated industries. No generic AI hype - just real-world implementations, battle-tested security measures and actionable frameworks from organizations already doing it.
We go deep into the intersection of AI deployment and data security, with emphasis on NIS2, DORA, GDPR and EU AI Act compliance. The program features live case studies from NLB and Bank of Slovenia, a platform launch, and expert sessions on HSM integration and AI infrastructure security.
Six sessions. Real implementations from NLB, Bank of Slovenia, KONČAR and CREAPLUS. No panels, no filler.
Who This Is For
C-suite executives, CISOs, data protection officers, compliance teams, technical specialists and business leaders from the financial sector, critical infrastructure and other regulated industries.
Agenda:
9:00 - 9:10 | Welcome Address and Introduction
9:10 - 9:30 | From Vision to Reality - NLB's Blueprint for Secure AI Deployment Dr. Franc Bračun, Deputy Board Member and Chief Data Officer, NLB d.d.
How NLB is rolling out AI across the group - from generative to agentic systems. What it took to scale while staying compliant, how they handle ethics and governance internally, and where AI is already improving decision-making and customer experience after 30 years of banking transformation.
9:30 - 10:00 | Agentic Systems for Internal Policies and Risk Reduction Aleš Gorišek, AI/IT Architect, NLB d.d.
Two production case studies. First: an internal system that lets employees query policies and circulars with automatic updates and referenced answers - no more digging through PDFs. Second: an agentic AI that reviews flagged cases to cut false positives and free up analyst time in large-scale operations.
10:00 - 10:30 | AILA 2.0 - Infrastructure Platform for Trustworthy AI Systems Klemen Rizman, Head of R&D, CREAPLUS
Public launch of AILA 2.0 - a generative AI platform built specifically for regulated environments. How it handles enterprise-level deployment with controls for data oversight, AI usage monitoring and cost management. Built for organizations that need AI but can't compromise on who sees the data.
10:30 - 11:00 | Coffee Break and Networking
11:00 - 11:30 | Bridging AI and HSM: Foundations for Secure AI Infrastructure Mario Jurčević, Head of Information Security, KONČAR - Digital
How to integrate Hardware Security Modules with AI workflows - key management, encryption at rest and in transit, and what DORA and PSD2 compliance actually looks like when AI models, inputs and outputs all need protection. Drawing on experience from Raiffeisenbank Croatia, the Croatian National Bank and the European Central Bank.
11:30 - 12:00 | How a Central Bank Masters Extensive Documents Without Hallucinations Cvetka Poštuvan, IT Architect, Bank of Slovenia
The CREAPLUS project that built a secure LLM-based assistant for Bank of Slovenia in a hybrid on-premise/cloud setup. How they process extensive documents with zero tolerance for hallucinations, and what it takes to satisfy central bank requirements for information security, confidentiality and compliance.
12:00 - 14:00 | Lunch and Socializing
