Speaking Engagements
Keynotes, panels, and workshops by Roel Willems on data strategy, AI governance, and rethinking governance as a competitive advantage.
At a invite-only networking event hosted by Veneficus, Roel Willems made the case that technology like AI has never been more powerful, but that's not where organizations get stuck. Why decision-making, not technology, determines who wins with AI.
At The Next Tech Frontier Executive Day, Roel Willems led a peer exchange on AI governance with 25 senior leaders, exploring how governance can become a business accelerator rather than a bottleneck.
At KickstartAI, Roel Willems challenged the dominant AI narrative: Europe isn't behind, we're playing a different game. He made the case for specificity over generality, exposed the simple math that makes fully autonomous agents not the magic solution for everything, and outlined three key concepts to pivot AI governance to unlock, not block innovation.
