Capgemini and The Alan Turing Institute invite you to an exclusive in-person breakfast roundtable at the Alan Turing Institute's offices at the British Library.

This session brings together senior executives shaping AI deployment in the Life Sciences sector, a space where risk, assurance, and operational complexity define success. Together, we will explore the barriers and emerging opportunities in scaling AI across the sector, including:

  • AI for Decision Critical Systems

AI systems that inform or support consequential decisions where users must understand, justify and rely on the output before acting. This can also relate to AI decision-support tools used in regulated, professional or high-accountability settings; AI systems that help users assess options, prioritise actions, or make operational judgements and more. 

  • AI for Operational and Industrial Systems

AI systems embedded into live operational, industrial or asset-intensive environments where deployment depends on integration with real-world processes, systems, equipment or workflows. This can also include AI for process optimisation, production planning, scheduling, or throughput improvement. AI for predictive maintenance, asset performance, reliability or downtime reduction and beyond.  (Note: Operations are the core, day-to-day activities and processes a company performs to create, market, and deliver value to customers, transforming inputs like labour and materials into finished products or services). 

  • AI for Compliance, Safety and Quality Systems  

AI systems used to monitor, test, verify, or assure safety, quality, compliance, or risk outcomes in settings where evidence and accountability are required before adoption.

Why should you attend? 

AI deployment in Life Sciences faces barriers rarely discussed openly: regulatory uncertainty, assurance requirements, integration with live operational systems, and the accountability demands of decision-critical environments.

This breakfast offers a structured, facilitated setting to discuss these challenges candidly with peers navigating the same constraints. Held under the Chatham House Rules, the session is built around open exchange rather than presentation: your experience shapes the conversation, and collective input builds a clearer picture of the sector's needs and opportunities. Insights and themes will inform the sector report, with no comments attributed to individuals or organisations.

What will you gain? 

  • Peer connections: direct exchange with AI decision-makers, engineers, and strategists across Life Sciences, in a small in-person format built for genuine discussion
  • Sector Insight: a sharper understanding of how comparable organisations are approaching AI in decision-critical, operational, and compliance settings: what is working, what is blocking progress, and why.
  • A voice in the sector report: discussion outputs will inform a report co-authored by  Capgemini and The Alan Turing Institute. All participants receive a copy, with their contribution shaping how the sector's barriers and opportunities are represented.
