We will examine anticipated regulatory priorities and enforcement trends, including implementation of comprehensive AI governance frameworks, sector-specific rules, model risk management expectations, and heightened scrutiny of transparency, accountability, and safety practices. Topics include regulatory obligations for developers and deployers, impacts on governance and policies, IP and copyright developments, employment law developments and best practices to prepare for 2026. The outlook will also be based on first case law we saw in 2025.

Participants will receive actionable guidance on building 2026-ready compliance programs and governance structures.

Equip your organization to navigate regulatory complexity, reduce enforcement and litigation risk, and enable responsible, scalable AI innovation in 2026.
