Do these challenges sound familiar?

Many organizations lack a structured AI governance framework, leading to compliance risks and ethical concerns.
AI models can introduce biases that impact fairness and decision-making, but organizations struggle to identify and mitigate these risks.
Rapid AI adoption outpaces regulatory frameworks, leaving businesses uncertain about compliance obligations.
Transparency and explainability remain significant challenges, especially for complex AI models.
Without clear governance policies, organizations risk reputational damage and loss of stakeholder trust.

As artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly evolves in the context of the product lifecycle, organizations and governments must implement effective governance frameworks to ensure ethical, transparent, and responsible AI development and deployment. Without proper oversight, AI can introduce biases, privacy risks, security vulnerabilities, and unintended consequences that impact businesses, individuals, and society at large.

This webinar will explore the importance of AI governance, discuss key challenges organizations face, and offer actionable insights on developing the proper governance frameworks that align with regulatory requirements, ethical principles, and business goals. Attendees will learn about best practices for monitoring AI systems, managing risk, and ensuring accountability in AI-driven decision-making.

Regardless of where your company is on its digital transformation journey, this webinar will provide timely and valuable insights to support your path to success. Guidance on justifying PLM (and similar tools) in the first instance and measuring their impacts throughout use will be presented. The knowledge obtained will benefit people from many parts of organizations since PLM is usually implemented to support cross-functional needs, providing a single-source-of-truth to information that impacts ERP, manufacturing planning, service, and other downstream processes.

This webinar will help you:

Understand the key principles of AI governance and why it is critical for responsible AI adoption to support the product lifecycle.
Develop and implement an AI governance framework aligned with industry standards and regulations.
Discover best practices for ensuring fairness, transparency, accountability, and security in AI systems.
Understand real-world examples of organizations successfully implementing AI governance strategies.
Gain insights into emerging regulatory trends and how to future-proof AI governance efforts.

Who should attend?

The information presented in this webinar will be valuable to multiple levels and roles: PLM planning and implementation team participants, all levels of management, PLM users (product developers, manufacturing planners, shop floor, quality teams, installation and services practitioners, IT, purchasing, and others)—anyone impacted by digitalization and PLM as a valuable solution in an organization.

During the webinar you’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
