Explore how AI systems can be engineered for efficient deployment on resource-constrained devices in this online AIoT Hub talk on 3 November 2026 at 6:00pm. Rethinking AI beyond the cloud As machine learning moves from powerful cloud infrastructure onto smaller devices, capable models alone are not enough. “(Re)-engineering AI” examines the systems-level challenges that determine whether AI can work efficiently and reliably in real-world, resource-constrained environments. Hosted by the AIoT Hub – Newcastle Upon Tyne community, formerly known as IoT North, this online talk features Blesson Varghese, Professor of Computer Science at the University of St Andrews. Rather than concentrating on one model or application, Varghese will unpack the engineering principles needed to make distributed and edge AI practical at scale. The presentation centres on three fundamental deployment problems: - ML systems do not run efficiently on small devices - Sequential dependencies can restrict efficient execution - AI workloads are highly memory-intensive Varghese will introduce research solutions developed through hands-on experience designing and deploying distributed and edge AI systems. Attendees will learn why existing approaches need to be reconsidered and how changing the design and execution of ML systems can support more practical AI deployment outside conventional cloud environments. About the speaker Blesson Varghese has more than 15 years of UK and international experience in the design, development and deployment of large-scale distributed computer systems. His research focuses on edge computing and distributed systems, with a strong emphasis on translating academic research into practical technology. He received the 2021 IEEE Rising Star Award and held a Royal Society fellowship in partnership with British Telecommunications plc.

⌖ Location TBC · Mexico City, Mexico

Hosted by WAN-IFRA LATAM

Mexico AI in Media Forum 2026 returns to Mexico City to address one of the most pressing questions facing journalism today: how can newsrooms strategically adopt artificial intelligence while preserving editorial integrity, audience trust, and journalistic values? This forum brings together media directors, editors-in-chief, managing editors, and digital transformation leaders to examine the real organisational and editorial impacts of AI adoption. What to expect The forum centres on eight strategic themes that reflect the current state of AI in newsrooms. AI in content creation explores how generative tools can support editorial production without compromising quality or trust. Sessions on generative search tackle how AI-powered search engines are fundamentally changing content visibility, traffic patterns, and distribution strategies — a critical concern as traditional search evolves. Data-driven storytelling sessions demonstrate how newsrooms are combining data analysis, visualisation, and AI to create compelling editorial narratives. The agent collaboration in the LLM era track examines new workflows emerging between journalists, editors, and AI systems, moving beyond simple automation to genuine human-AI partnership in the editorial process. AI governance is a cornerstone theme, addressing the frameworks and policies media organisations need to adopt AI responsibly. The forum explores what it means to become an AI-first newsroom — the cultural and strategic shifts required to embed AI across the organisation rather than treating it as a peripheral technology. Critical sessions on AI and disinformation examine the editorial risks posed by synthetic content, deepfakes, and manipulated media, alongside practical responses newsrooms can implement. The closing theme, the next chapter for AI and editors, looks ahead to the strategic decisions that will shape newsroom leadership in the coming years. Who should attend This event is designed for media executives and senior editorial leaders — directors, editors-in-chief, managing editors, section editors, and newsroom leaders navigating AI transformation.

⌖ Riyadh · Fairmont Riyadh

Hosted by ServiceNow

ServiceNow is bringing its AI Summit to Riyadh on November 4, 2026 — a complimentary, full-day discovery event designed to transform how organizations understand and implement AI. Hosted at the Fairmont Riyadh, this summit addresses a critical challenge: while everyone is talking about AI, most organizations still struggle to put it to work effectively. This event bridges that gap by showing attendees how to apply AI to real business problems and leave with actionable strategies they can implement immediately. What You'll Experience The summit is structured around four core components designed to provide both strategic vision and practical implementation guidance. The Keynote Session features ServiceNow leadership unveiling groundbreaking plans and revealing how AI is fundamentally changing the platform's capabilities. You'll gain insights directly applicable to shaping your organization's AI journey, regardless of where you are in the process. The Innovation Showcase demonstrates how ServiceNow integrates with any cloud, any data source, any workflow, and any industry vertical. This hands-on exploration helps you understand how to apply the platform to your organization's toughest challenges, with real-world examples and live demonstrations. Breakout Sessions throughout the day feature industry experts and ServiceNow partners sharing best practices, inspiring success stories, and tactical advice.

The summit also emphasizes community networking, providing structured opportunities to exchange ideas, tackle implementation questions, and learn from the collective intelligence of the ServiceNow community. These conversations often prove as valuable as the formal sessions. The AI Control Tower Concept A central theme of the summit is ServiceNow's position as an "AI control tower" — a unified platform that brings together all your AI capabilities, data sources, and workflows across your entire business. Rather than managing disconnected AI tools and pilots, you'll learn how one platform can orchestrate enterprise-wide AI transformation. This approach addresses the common challenge of AI fragmentation that prevents organizations from scaling their initiatives effectively. Who Should Attend This event is designed for decision-makers

⌖ Leeds · Platform

Hosted by The Curve

A closed-door Leeds discussion for senior professional-services leaders on shadow AI, data sovereignty and accountability for AI-assisted decisions. Taking place from 8:30am to 10:30am on 4 November 2026 at Platform in Leeds, this focused session from The Curve tackles the gap between formal AI policy and how artificial intelligence is already being used inside organisations. From informal AI use to defensible control Employees may be turning to personal AI accounts because approved tools are inadequate or unavailable. Governance policies may reflect how the organisation operated a year ago, while regulation and everyday usage continue to evolve. Meanwhile, ownership can become unclear when an AI-assisted decision produces the wrong result. Rather than treating these challenges as employee discipline issues, the discussion will examine them as questions of organisational design. Attendees will explore: - Where sanctioned and unsanctioned AI may already be operating, and what that exposes - How to size governance according to genuine risk rather than impose blanket processes - Where data sovereignty matters, and where it may sit lower on the risk spectrum - How governance can withstand model drift, regulatory drift and growing teams - What effective governance looks like when translated from principles into daily practice - How organisations can train and supervise junior staff who may not yet recognise when AI output is wrong The aim is to help leaders move away from ungoverned or informal AI use and towards confident, proportionate and defensible control, without assuming that every business needs the same framework. Speakers and format The conversation will include Fiona Widd, Head of IT at Clarion Solicitors, and James Ridgway, CTO at The Curve. This is not an AI hype session or a lecture focused on the wording of legislation. It is a small, in-person, closed-door discussion for senior leaders in professional service organisations, designed around candid peer exchange and practical experience. The session will operate under the Chatham House Rule, creating space to discuss shadow AI, unclear ownership and operational exposure openly. Breakfast will be provided.

What you’ll work through Facilitator Simon Wingfield, founder of Wingfield Consultants, will help participants: - Apply the PROVEN framework, beginning with the problem rather than the tool - Identify appropriate uses for AI, including structure, first drafts, checking and repetitive work - Protect human voice, judgement, relationships and organisational values - Assess low-, medium- and high-stakes tasks using a three-tier risk model - Test tools and tasks against trust, accuracy, data and value - Examine data exposure, environmental impact, workforce confidence and equity - Draft a practical one-page AI policy and commit to one action within five working days The workshop is designed for leaders, directors, trustees and managers in social enterprises, charities and community organisations. It suits both existing AI users and those actively resisting adoption; no technical knowledge is needed. Much of the value comes from discussion with other participants, so attendees should expect to talk, question assumptions and produce something concrete. Practical details The session runs 10am–1pm on Thursday 5 November 2026 at Carrow House, 301 King Street, Norwich. Meet at main reception ten minutes before the start. Free on-site parking, disabled bays, tea, coffee and light snacks are available. For information about step-free access, contact hello@norwichunityhub.co.uk.

⌖ Leeds · Sir William Henry Bragg Building GR.18

Hosted by Artificial Intelligence Society

Discover how agentic AI goes beyond chatbots to become your intelligent digital teammate at this beginner-friendly workshop hosted by the Leeds University Artificial Intelligence Society. Taking place at the Sir William Henry Bragg Building, this introductory session demystifies AI systems that don't just respond—they plan, execute, and learn from their actions. What Makes Agentic AI Different While traditional chatbots simply reply to prompts, agentic AI systems transform goals into tangible outcomes. These intelligent agents break down complex tasks into manageable steps, select and use appropriate tools—from search engines and code editors to spreadsheets, email clients, and calendars—then execute actions autonomously. What sets them apart is their ability to reflect on results, verify their work, and retry when needed. This fundamental shift from passive response to active execution represents a paradigm change in how we interact with AI. What You'll Learn This hands-on workshop covers the essential building blocks of agentic systems without requiring any coding experience. You'll explore how these agents leverage large language models (LLMs), integrate external tools, maintain memory across interactions, and employ sophisticated planning algorithms. The session breaks down the core feedback loop that enables agents to continuously improve their performance and adapt to changing requirements. You'll examine real-world student use cases that demonstrate practical applications, from automating research workflows to managing complex project timelines. The workshop also addresses crucial topics around safety considerations and evaluation frameworks, helping you understand both the capabilities and limitations of current agentic systems. Why Attend As the first workshop in the society's comprehensive Agentic AI series, this session provides the foundational knowledge you'll need for more advanced topics ahead. You'll leave with a clear mental model for understanding how agents operate, realistic expectations about their current capabilities, and insights into where this technology is heading. The society emphasises accessibility—no technical prerequisites are required, making this perfect for anyone curious about the next evolution of AI systems. Spots are limited for this popular workshop, ensuring an intimate learning environment where you can ask questions and engage directly with the material.
