### **The AI trust gap: Securing data integrity in high-stakes environments**\_

📍 Storey Club, Paddington, London

📅 May 11, 2026 9.30 AM – 1.30 PM

🍴 Complimentary networking breakfast & lunch included

 

**As AI deployment accelerates, the risk of data oversharing and regulatory non-compliance grows. Join Microsoft and Infinity Group for a private roundtable on building a secure, audit-ready foundation for Copilot and beyond. **

**Why attend?**

AI is moving fast, but it is not just about productivity anymore. It is about keeping your organisation secure and resilient. Turning on Copilot is the easy bit. Making sure years of legacy data, sensitive IP and regulatory demands do not create risk is where it gets real.

- **The visibility challenge:** Gain a clear view of your "Dark Data" and identify where sensitive information is over-shared across your M365 tenant.
- **Closing the governance gap:** Bridge the distance between AI ambition and regulatory reality - mapping technical controls to GDPR, NIS2, and industry-specific standards.

Only a limited number of places remain to keep the discussion focused. If you’d like to join, please **use the form on the right to request an invitation**.
