From regulation to defensible trust
AI Governance keynotes for boards, leaders & global forums. Artificial Intelligence is moving from experimentation to infrastructure.
As a result, AI Governance has become a board-level responsibility. Patrick Upmann delivers AI Governance keynotes at the point where regulation, oversight, and accountability converge. His talks provide boards, executives, regulators, and international conferences with decision clarity on how Responsible AI must be governed when scrutiny, audits, and liability exposure become real.
From the EU AI Act to global standards such as ISO/IEC 42001, Patrick’s keynotes do not explain regulation in isolation. They show how governance must be structured to hold under audit, supervisory review, and real-world pressure.The Essential AI Governance Keynotes

The value of AI Governance keynotes
Patrick Upmann is the architect of the AI Governance Operating System (AIGN OS) and the inventor of the ASGR Index.
His work is grounded in:
