CEIBS Zurich Campus AI Executive Series — Governing AI: A Board Perspective
Governing AI:
A Board Perspective
AI is rapidly moving from experimentation to becoming part of how organisations analyse, decide and operate. But as its influence grows, so does a more difficult question: Who is responsible when AI starts shaping decisions?
Register NowAI is powerful. Now, who owns the consequences?
CEIBS Zurich Campus invites executives, board members and business leaders to a candid and practical conversation on AI, finance, ethics and governance — separating what genuinely matters from the growing noise.
Rather than another discussion about regulation or the latest technology, Prof. Dr. Eelco Fiole and Dr. Robert Straw will explore AI through the lens of leadership and accountability: where responsibility sits, what good AI governance actually means, and how governance can enable rather than constrain innovation.
What We Will Explore
- Real insight vs. AI noise — what should boards and executives actually be paying attention to?
- Responsibility, accountability and liability — who owns AI-enabled decisions?
- What AI governance IS — and what it ISN'T — moving beyond compliance and regulation.
- Governance as an enabler — how thoughtful governance can support faster, more confident business innovation.
- From principles to practice — first glimpses into how organisations can begin designing governance for AI.
