11:15am Keynote: AI, Governance, and Architecture: A Business Perspective
11:55am Executive Panel Discussion 2: The Trust Foundation: AI Governance, Cloud Security, and Workforce Readiness
Ian Loe is an AI governance practitioner, author, and independent speaker whose work sits at the intersection of enterprise strategy, accountability, and the organisational conditions required to deploy AI responsibly at scale.
He is the creator of FRAME, a domain-agnostic governance framework for AI accountability, and AAEF, the AI Agent Evaluation Framework, both of which have been adopted by enterprise practitioners navigating the shift to agentic AI systems. His frameworks address the questions that boards and leadership teams consistently struggle to answer: what AI systems are actually doing, what records they leave, and who is accountable when things go wrong.
Ian brings a practitioner-first perspective shaped by nearly three decades in technology leadership across financial services, retail, government, and real estate. His background in cybersecurity informs a rigorous, evidence-based approach to AI governance, one grounded in operational reality rather than theoretical ideals.
Beyond his corporate responsibilities, Ian is also deeply invested in mentoring the next generation of technology leaders. He has authored books on quantum computing, enterprise architecture, digital transformation, and process mapping, and regularly shares insights on data governance, AI adoption, and emerging technologies. Drawing on his diverse background, from cybersecurity and cloud adoption to AI strategy and organizational design, he brings a rare combination of technical depth, strategic foresight, and a strong commitment to knowledge sharing and publishes regularly at ianloe.medium.com.
