Join us for a thought-provoking Chartered IIA Race & Ethnicity Network (REN) event as we explore whether AI is amplifying existing inequalities.
About this event
Are we building intelligent systems—or scaling inequality?
Artificial Intelligence is transforming how organisations operate, make decisions, and serve customers. But without the right oversight, AI can also amplify existing inequalities—particularly where data gaps, design choices, or deployment decisions embed unintended bias.
Join us for a thought-provoking Chartered IIA Race & Ethnicity Network (REN) event as we explore:
- Where inequality can emerge in AI: representation gaps, biased outcomes, and unintended impacts
- Inclusive design and responsible AI: practical ways to embed fairness from build to rollout
- Accountability and assurance: how internal audit can challenge, influence, and provide confidence over governance, controls, and outcomes
🔥 Fireside Chat: Mentoring in Action
We’ll also host a fireside chat spotlighting our pilot mentoring scheme, featuring one of our mentor–mentee pairs. They’ll share insights from the programme and how mentoring can build confidence, capability, and community within our profession.
Who should attend?
- Internal Auditors
- Risk & Compliance professionals
- Data, AI & Technology leaders
- Anyone passionate about fairness, inclusion, and the future of our profession
Be part of the conversation
This is more than an event; it’s an opportunity to shape how Internal Audit responds to one of the most important challenges of our time.
Join us to learn, connect, and contribute to a future where AI works for everyone, not just a few.
