The L Suite’s AI Forum brings together General Counsels and CLOs for candid, practical conversations about how legal teams are putting AI to work. As departments move beyond advising on AI to actively using it for drafting, review, research, compliance, and policy development, they are also defining the guardrails that keep adoption responsible and defensible.

Through collaborative discussions and shared real-world experience, this in-person forum equips legal leaders to navigate the most urgent questions surrounding AI oversight, prompting practices, cybersecurity and privacy exposure, emerging risks, and the evolving regulatory landscape. Attendees will leave with insights they can apply immediately and a clearer view of how to shape the future of AI within their organizations.

This in person Forum is for 45-50 GCs and CLOs at high-growth private companies and innovative public companies.

-> AI Governance & Data - How are legal teams building frameworks to manage AI responsibly while navigating privacy rules?
As AI becomes embedded across products and operations, legal teams are increasingly responsible for shaping governance frameworks that balance innovation with accountability. This discussion examines how in-house legal leaders are structuring AI oversight, data governance, and decision-making processes to align with evolving privacy obligations and regulatory expectations. Topics include cross-functional ownership, policy design, risk assessment, and practical approaches to managing data use, transparency, and lifecycle controls in environments where legal requirements and business needs continue to evolve.

-> IP in the Age of AI - AI implications on traditional notions of ownership and protection of IP
AI is reshaping long-standing assumptions about how intellectual property is created, owned, and protected, raising new questions for in-house legal teams across industries. As AI systems generate code, content, and technical solutions, legal leaders are navigating evolving standards around authorship, inventorship, data provenance, and enforceability, often without clear regulatory or judicial guidance. This discussion explores how in-house teams are adapting IP strategies to account for AI-assisted creation, third-party model dependencies, and training data considerations, while advising the business on risk, value, and defensibility in a rapidly changing landscape.

-> AI in the Office: Efficiency Gains vs. Legal Risk
From prior authorization automation to chart review and coding, AI is creeping into the operational core of companies. For GCs, the challenge is to balance innovation with compliance. This discussion will cover where GCs are already experimenting with AI to reduce administrative burden, which criteria legal teams should use to decide which tools are safe to adopt — and which carry unacceptable risk. Attendees will also discuss how to build frameworks for vendor oversight, data protection, and liability allocation when AI is in the picture.

-> The Race to Become an “AI Company”: Hype, Risk, and Legal Guardrails
Nearly every company platform is rebranding itself as AI-driven. For GCs, this shift raises questions of substance versus marketing. The discussion will address how to separate real capability from regulatory risk in vendor or partnership contracts, which disclosures, investor communications, or compliance guardrails are necessary when AI is part of the product story, and how GCs should advise executives on scaling responsibly without overpromising what the tech can deliver.
