AI Futureproofing: London's Practical AI Conference

A practical one-day AI conference on the South Bank pitched at business owners and leaders rather than engineers: masterclasses on where AI makes or saves money, building it into workflows, upskilling teams and managing the risks. 09:00 to 17:30 at the Coin Street Neighbourhood Centre, in person, 21+.

The speaker list is the strongest signal here: Dan Mehaffey of Anthropic, Rob McCargow of PwC, Olivia Ward of Burges Salmon, Gori Yahaya of UpSkill Universe, Madlen Nicolaus of Hexagon and Laura Holden of Bonsai Blue. No job titles are published and the agenda is not up yet. Paid, with early-bird pricing closing 31 October; no amounts are published on the listing.

Why go: a credible cross-section of vendor, consultancy, legal and training voices in one day, aimed at people deciding what to adopt rather than what to build. Best for founders and functional leads at companies that are not themselves technical.
