Voices of inspiration

Hear insights from these three visionary IS/IT leaders.

Opening Keynote Speaker: Henry Ajder

Henry is a leading expert in AI and deepfakes as well as a Sythentic Media Expert, Advisor, BBC Presenter and LinkedIn Top Voice on AI. As founder of Latent Space Advisory, he has advised governments and tech firms on how to navigate the exponential changes of the synthetic revolution, helping them to balance innovation with a coherent ethical framework. His work as a broadcaster, writer and academic enables him to demystify the rapid expansion of the sector audiences while analysing the wider implications of AI on society, the individual, and the world in general.

In 2019, following the publication of his paper, The State of Deepfakes, which mapped the tangible effects of Generative AI on humankind, Henry became the world’s first Deepfake Cartographer. Since then, he has authored and co-authored reports for several organisations, including the World Economic Forum, The Tony Blair Institute for Global Change, MIT, The Law Commission, the Turing Institute and the Royal Society. Henry’s documentary series for the BBC, The Future Will Be Synthesised, which anticipated the advent of AI and its effects, both good and bad, on humankind, was broadcast in 2022.

Closing Keynote Speaker: Sarah Furness

Sarah is a highly sought-after leadership speaker for organisations navigating complexity, pressure, and constant change. Drawing on her experience as a former Royal Air Force Squadron Leader and combat helicopter pilot, she brings exceptional authority on what it takes to lead when the stakes are high and the environment is unpredictable.

Sarah challenges outdated leadership models that prioritise dominance or homogeneity. She speaks directly to the realities facing today’s organisations: leading diverse teams, creating psychological safety, and balancing accountability with compassion. Integrating military insight with proven cognitive and behavioural techniques, Sarah helps leaders strengthen focus, manage stress, and respond effectively to uncertainty. She is also author of the bestselling books Fly Higher and The Uni-Tasking Revolution, in which she explores mental training for high performance, leadership under pressure, and healthier, more effective ways of working.
