On 26th April 2024, Artefact Singapore and our Tech Partner, Treasure Data, a leading solutions provider of Customer Data Platform, held a panel discussion where digital and data experts from various industries gathered to delve into the topic of consumer engagement (r)evolution, as well as the key ingredients that go under the surface of such transformation.

Nathalie Beslay, CEO and co-founder of Naaia, met with Caroline Goulard, journalist and CEO of data visualization companies Dataveyes and Modality, to discuss the new AI Act, set to enter into force after its April 22nd publication in the European Union’s Official Journal. Their 45’ interview, held in The Bridge by Artefact studio, explores every aspect of this Act designed to ensure safety and compliance with fundamental rights, while boosting innovation.

Jean-Marie John-Mathews, PhD, Co-founder and scientific director of Giskard AI, and Caroline Goulard, journalist and CEO of data visualization companies Dataveyes and Modality, discuss the ethical and political challenges of AI development. They explore how categories are constructed in a society, how they politicize issues, and how AI turned categorization on its head.

Data governance has become a critical issue for organizations seeking to unlock the full potential of their data. Artefact brought together industry leaders to explore data democratization and the transformation strategies they are using in their organizations. The discussion focused on gamification, event management, and ways to reinvent acculturation through hackathons, bootcamps, and e-learning.

As interest in and integration of AI solutions surges, there is a pressing need for businesses to embark on initiatives that ensure the proper governance of AI design and use. Inadequate governance of AI puts organizations at risk of non-compliance with regulatory requirements, compromising their decision-making process, and failing to meet customer expectations.
