Day 1 | 17 November 2026

3:10 PM Panel: Scaling Agentic AI Safely: How can you scale AI agents while maintaining control, oversight and security?

Agentic AI is rapidly emerging as a powerful way to automate complex workflows, but scaling autonomous systems introduces new challenges around control, security and accountability. As organisations move from experimentation to deployment, defining the right balance between autonomy and oversight is becoming critical.

This panel will explore how organisations are approaching the safe deployment of agentic AI. 

  • How can you design systems that enable autonomy while maintaining appropriate human oversight? 
  • What security and governance controls are needed to manage risk? 
  • How do you measure the performance and business value of agentic systems in production environments?
