Governance-driven AI: Protecting data while advancing innovation

As AI adoption accelerates, law firms and corporate legal teams must manage growing data volumes while enabling new technology. This session explains why information governance needs to be central to any effective AI strategy. Chris Giles, CEO and Founder of iCompli, will explore how core governance practices—data minimisation, classification, lifecycle management, and auditing—reduce risk and cost while improving control. Attendees will see how well-governed data supports reliable AI through accuracy, controlled access, accountability, and compliance with privacy and regulatory obligations.

The session will show how organisations can move from reactive data management to a structured foundation that supports better decisions, faster workflows, and stronger client confidence. It concludes with a practical roadmap covering assessment, policy, platform controls, and ongoing improvement.
