Description

*In-Person Event*

We invite you to join Greater Rochester Chamber's Small Business Council affiliate for a brief informative presentation followed by a networking event at the Dryden Theatre at George Eastman House on Wednesday, March 26th. This event will feature a 30-minute presentation and Q&A session, followed by a networking social hour. 

As AI adoption accelerates, organizations must navigate complex legal, ethical, and technical challenges to ensure responsible and secure implementation. In this session, Kate Polozie, Esq., Partner at Woods Oviatt Gilman LLP will explore key legal considerations, including AI policy development, evolving laws and regulations, contractual protections, and the emerging risks of AI-driven fraud. Complementing this perspective, Christian Foster, vCISO at LMT Technology Solutions, will provide technical insights on AI inventory management, securing AI systems, mitigating vulnerabilities, and ensuring compliance with evolving regulations. Together, they will provide insight into how to adopt AI while protecting your most valuable asset—data, the new oil. Attendees will gain the knowledge to implement AI responsibly and with confidence.

This presentation will be followed by a social hour that includes appetizers and one drink ticket. During the social hour, attendees will be given the option to access The George Eastman Museum.
