OVERVIEW

We read news headlines about crypto hacks, fintech fraud, and emerging technology that ultimately causes harm to everyday people. Artificial intelligence technology continues to dominate the news cycles. How do we stay on top of the risks and keep our companies and communities safe?

Notably, the rise and fall of cryptocurrency exchange FTX is a historic failure of internal control that will likely lead to fundamental shifts in governance and regulation for the digital asset industry and emerging technologies overall.
