Privacy, security and governance can no longer be addressed in isolation. That is the premise of Convergence, a 1-day, in-person conference hosted by Wilson Elser in New York City on 30 Sep. 2026.

AAAnow will be there. For anyone attending, this is an opportunity to meet in person and talk through how AI reads an organisation, and what that means for the governance questions the day sets out to answer.

01The conference.

Wilson Elser hosts Convergence in partnership with Ankura and PrivadoAI. The day brings together general counsel, privacy leaders, cybersecurity and risk professionals, the insurance and carrier community, and outside counsel, for practical discussion and industry networking.

At a glance

  • 30 Sep. 2026, from 9:00am (ET), New York City.
  • 4 focused sessions, followed by a closing reception.
  • Speakers from Wilson Elser: Jana S. Farmer, Dominik Cvitanovic, Anjali C. Das, Jonathan E. Meer and Cody I. Valdez.

As agentic AI advances and regulatory expectations evolve, the sessions examine where privacy, security and governance meet, and how organisations respond when they can no longer be managed apart.

02Why the convergence reaches what AI reads.

The same convergence runs through an organisation’s public information. What it publishes is what AI systems read, and what they read is what they repeat, to customers, regulators, insurers and counsel alike. Governance of AI therefore starts with understanding what AI can reach and how it interprets it.

That understanding bridges the gap between what an organisation knows of itself and what AI sees of it. For the privacy, security and risk professionals in the room, it provides a factual, outside-in position to govern from: the information AI draws on, the routes it uses, and where the published record no longer reflects the organisation. AI Governance sets out how AAAnow approaches it.

03Meeting at Convergence.
