Focus Areas

Three days, three themes

Each day of the conference builds on the last, from strategy and governance to records in the AI era and the trust that holds it all together.

Day 1

Setting the Strategic Foundation

Real case studies of EDRM and AI adoption, tested against the governance, ethics, and regulatory frameworks that decide whether AI can be trusted. The day gets granular on data quality, integrity, metadata, and interoperability, the unglamorous groundwork every AI ambition actually depends on.

Day 2

Records and Archives in the AI Era

Sponsors showcase their solutions, then sessions dive into AI-enabled knowledge workplaces, productivity and collaboration tools, AI governance and ethics, and workforce readiness. The afternoon puts theory into practice with an NSSF field visit across Finance, Records, TES, and Commercial.

Day 3

Trust, Talent, and Transformation

Cybersecurity, privacy, and digital trust take centre stage alongside emerging technologies like agentic AI, digital twins, and hyper automation. Case studies showcase real-world ROI, breakout groups build intelligent-workspace roadmaps, and the closing ceremony wraps up the conference.

Conference Agenda

Explore our intensive structured roadmap. Track digital transformations, artificial intelligence protocols, enterprise EDRM implementations, and expert-led security panels.

ACTIVE DAY SCOPE & TARGETS
