About the Webinar
Trust isn’t just a nice-to-have in today’s data ecosystems. It’s the foundation everything else is built on. But as AI adoption accelerates and regulatory complexity grows, building and sustaining that trust requires more than good intentions. It demands deliberate, ethical governance baked into every layer of your data program.
In this one-on-one interview, Data Evangelist Mark Horseman sits down with Katrina Ingram — founder of Ethically Aligned AI, developer of Canada’s first AI ethics micro-credential, and one of the 100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics — for an honest look at what governance actually demands right now. They’ll explore how privacy principles, ethical AI design, and evolving regulatory requirements intersect with real-world data strategy, and what it takes to move from compliance checkbox to genuine organizational trust.
Whether you’re a governance practitioner, data leader, or privacy professional, you’ll leave with practical perspectives you can bring back to your own program.
