Moving from AI experiments to a resilient, high-performance operation in 2026.

Most organizations have already deployed the tools and secured the licenses. Now comes the defining challenge of 2026: Transforming AI potential into scalable business value without losing control.

Join us for an after-work session where we, together with Jyske Bank and Netic, bridge the gap between two critical worlds. We explore the journey from a solid data foundation to Secure AI@Scale, while ensuring your infrastructure is built on the pillars of sovereignty and resilience.

 

Executing Secure AI@Scale

Ralf Pedersen (Director of Quality, Data & Infrastructure, Jyske Bank) shares the roadmap for 2026: Harvesting the value. After building the foundation in 2025, we now move toward empowering developers and delivering business solutions that create tangible impact through fully integrated data, cloud, and governance.

 

The Sovereign Engine Room

Claus Hansen (CCO, Netic) addresses the boardroom challenge: Balancing agility with digital sovereignty. We dive into the three strategic pillars of modern infrastructure—achieving technical control on domestic soil, avoiding vendor lock-in through "exit-readiness," and building national resilience to ensure your AI evolution remains compliant and secure.

Who should attend?

  • Decision Makers & Leaders: You, who need to transform AI strategy into tangible business value and secure operations.
  • AI & IT Architects: You, who build the foundation for scaling, hybrid cloud, and technical sovereignty.
  • Compliance & Security: You, who ensure that data governance and regulatory requirements keep pace with innovation.

Light snacks and refreshments will be served.

What's on the agenda?

Scaling AI in finance

"In 2025, we chose to do AI right before we did AI big.

We built the foundation by simultaneously establishing data, data governance, cloud, and security, while putting the first AI assistants into operation. The lesson was clear: AI only scales when data, cloud, and governance are fully integrated.

In 2026, it is time to harvest the value.

We are moving from the foundation to Secure and Compliant AI@Scale, where we will simultaneously empower developers with AI tools and deliver business solutions that create tangible value through AI."

AI Sovereignty

"In 2025 and 2026, IT operations have moved from the server room to the boardroom. For the financial sector and regulated industries, the challenge is clear: How do you balance agility with heightened regulatory demands and the need for digital sovereignty?

This session focuses on the three strategic pillars required to balance growth with compliance through a new approach to resilience:

  • Sovereignty: Gain legal, operational, and technical control of your data on domestic soil to eliminate uncertainty regarding third-country transfers.
  • Ending Vendor Lock-in: Avoid provider dependency. We present strategies to manage massive license price hikes and ensure 'exit-readiness' through open-source and hybrid cloud.
  • National Resilience: Implementing geographical redundancy that makes business-critical infrastructure immune to national IT disasters, ensuring continuous operations.

Looking ahead, we address the need for Sovereign AI Infrastructure: How do we leverage the potential of LLMs on proprietary data without that data ever leaving domestic control?"
