- **Event Description**: Join us for the second instalment of the NED Series as we discuss 'AI - A journey rather than a destination'About this EventArtificial Intelligence (AI) continues to dominate headlines and boardroom conversations, often portrayed as a transformative force capable of solving every business challenge. However, the reality is more nuanced and for Non-Executive Directors, the challenge lies in discerning substance from hype. This session invites attendees to look beyond the hype and explore why AI may not always be the “silver bullet” solution it’s made out to be.At this event, Neil Kelly will introduce a framework to guide board-level conversations around evaluating AI opportunities, helping attendees distinguish between genuine value and overpromised potential. The session will also shed light on the critical role of data—its structure, quality, and governance—in enabling successful AI adoption. Without the right data foundations, even the most sophisticated models can fall short.We'll also be welcoming Kurt Schrauwen Director, Riela Cyber to offer his insight during an interactive Q&A session post presentation.Whether you're exploring AI for the first time or refining your strategy, this event will equip you with the clarity and tools to make informed, responsible decisions.Format5:30pm - Registration, refreshments and networking opportunity.6pm - Introduction from Steve Billinghurst, Chair IoD Isle of ManWelcome to sponsor and guest speaker - Neil Kelly, Partner | Advisory | KPMG in the Crown DependenciesFireside discussion - Neil Kelly and Kurt Schrauwen - moderated by Steve Billinghurst7pm - 7:30pm Networking till event closeSponsorThank you to KPMG in the Crown Dependencies for supporting the IoD Isle of Man NED Series.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/078b0ba0-b231-11f0-b797-450f5eb69a3d-rimg-w1002-h740-dcffffff-gmir.jpg
