Scaling the Sovereign Agentic Enterprise: From Governed Trust to P&L Impact

An executive evening on sovereignty, governance and the economics of scaling agentic AI in regulated industries.
Overview
Agentic AI dominates demos and pilots. In regulated industries - telecoms, defence, financial services and government - very little of it yet runs in production with real data, real decisions and a full audit trail. This evening examines that gap and the opportunity beneath it: how sovereign, governed agentic AI moves from pilot to production at scale, and turns trust into measurable P&L impact. Whether agents are governed by design or only after the fact decides whether they are accountable, durable, and genuinely owned inside the enterprise.
Date: Tuesday 30th June 2026
Time: 6:30pm - 11:00pm
Venue: The 12th Knot, Sea Containers London, 20 Upper Ground, South Bank, London SE1 9PD
Format: By invitation only.
Dress: Smart business attire
The Evening
An evening that blends editorial content - a keynote, an expert panel discussion with three AI practitioners and a closing session with Co-founder and CEO, Mick McNeil. The audience will be for 100 senior leaders from regulated enterprise, government, AI leaders and capital.
Topics covered
Beyond the pilot: what changes when an agent has to outlive six months in production.
Sovereignty in practice: keeping models and sensitive data inside the enterprise boundary.
From cost centre to P&L line: what governed agents actually return, and how fast.
Who owns the agent inside the organisation: the platform team, the CAIO, or the line of business.
Accountability and durability: governance by design, or governance after the fact. How you grade agents that grade themselves.
The talent gap: and what forward-deployed engineering actually delivers.
