** we are grateful for your interest in AI security and safety. We’re oversubscribed and are not accepting additional RSVPs at this time. We host this workshop in SF twice a year. See you in Q1 2027! **
No one starts a company to build rogue agents.
As teams move from prototype to production, security expectations change fast. This workshop gives founders and founding team an end-to-end view of what secure AI looks like as you scale and go-to-market.
Hear from leaders across OpenAI, Baselayer, and enterprise AI on the latest threat landscape, how to balance startup constraints with enterprise security requirements, and how security and governance controls show up in GTM conversations. The panel is stacked: - Vanessa Sauter, Cyber at OpenAI, early hire at Gong and Promptfoo - Nicole Dunn, General Manager at Baselayer - Raji Vanninathan, Security Engineering expert at leading enterprise tech - Christina Hsu, Moderator
Then, we’ll go deeper through roundtables led by these experts: - Agent identity: Aarti Bharathan, Global FinTech Exec and Startup Advisor - Red teaming: Jenny Ni, AI Safety Researcher
The room is intentionally curated. You’ll walk away knowing where to get started and which open-source tools can help you build AI that’s secure from the start. Importantly, come meet AI security experts and likeminded builders to tackle similar challenges.
The event is hosted by SF Tech Unleashed and Deloitte Consulting LLC and supported by Baselayer.
This event is a part of #SFTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
