/ About this event
AI is easy to try and hard to own. The model works in a pilot. Getting it into production means deciding where it runs, where your data goes, and how much control you keep. Keep it in house and you own the servers, network and data center behind it, which can make it safer or harder to secure. And once agents act inside the business, someone has to answer for what they do.
Join Quantec, Kindo and Meter on the Arc Beverly rooftop for a conversation with the people building, securing and investing in these systems. Built for CIOs, CISOs, CTOs and infrastructure leaders, the finance leaders who fund them, and founders and investors deciding how much of this to build at all.
What we'll get into • Safety and sovereignty: when does keeping AI under your own control make it safer, what happens when a policy change forces you off a model provider, and what happens when an employee routes company data through a model you never approved? • Agents with real permissions: what they can touch, what gets logged, and who signs off. • The team and the network underneath it: AI asks for people who have time to learn it and a network ready to carry agents and new devices. Where does that capacity come from, and what belongs on your staff's plate versus a provider's? • Buy, lease or rent: how companies are financing AI infrastructure, how it lands on the balance sheet, and when deterministic code beats paying for tokens.
