Free webinar · AI Reality Check · Tuesday 22nd September, 11.00am BST · 30 minutes
Too much happened this summer. Here's what matters.
More changed in AI this summer than most leadership teams have had time to take in. No one person can keep up with all of it, so here is the September catch-up.
Thirty minutes with Antony Mayfield on what's happened, why it matters and what it means for your organisation between now and Christmas. Twenty minutes, then ten for your questions.

What we'll cover
What changed in AI this summer
A lot happened between June and September. Antony will take you through the changes that matter most for the economy, for organisations and for your team, including what the EU AI Act means for you.
What the most exposed sectors are doing about it
Legal was one of the departments to innovate. Banking and security are following. We'll look at why legal went first, what those firms are building now, and what it tells the rest of us about the order this tends to happen in.
The question your board is about to ask
"What are we doing about AI, and how are we tracking it?" We'll get into why that's harder to answer than it should be – 89% of organisations use AI regularly, 6% say it's made a significant difference to profit (McKinsey, August 2026) – and what a good answer looks like.
What you'll take away
- → A clear picture of what changed this summer and why it matters to you.
- → What the most exposed sectors are doing, and which of it applies to you.
- → An answer for your board, and a question to take back to your team.
