The Graphwise AI Summit 2026 is a two-day free virtual event bringing together business leaders and technical practitioners to share what’s working: the governance approaches, the architectural decisions, and the implementation lessons that move AI from pilot to production.
Two days. One connected story about what it takes to get enterprise AI right.
Day 1: Where ROI Meets Trust

What we cover:
How to build AI that’s explainable, auditable, and defensible to regulators
How to move AI projects from proof-of-concept to production: without losing momentum or business buy-in
What governance that accelerates deployment looks like in practice
Day 2: The Infrastructure and Implementation
October 8, 2026
What we cover:
How to design a data foundation that reduces complexity instead of adding to it
How teams are building AI systems that scale, and stay maintainable
