Taking AI from PoC to Production with MHRA

Organised by Audacia

Many organisations are exploring AI, but few see their pilot projects through to production. Recent figures suggest that up to 88% of AI PoCs (Proofs of Concept) fail to launch. This session takes a closer look at why that is, and what can be done differently to increase success rates.

Grounded in a real-world case study with the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), this conversation will reflect on the full lifecycle of an AI project  – from early ideas and feasibility, through pilots, and into live production.

The panel brings together voices from data, engineering, delivery, and project management to share lessons from a successful GenAI implementation that is now helping to inform transparent AI in regulation around the world.

This session will explore:

  • Why so many AI pilots stall and what can be done to avoid it
  • How to set projects up for a smoother path from PoC to production
  • The infrastructure, process, and people considerations that shape long-term success
  • What it takes to make GenAI work in a highly regulated public sector setting
This event is aimed at: anyone interested in how to move AI projects beyond pilots and into production. Whether you’re a CIO, CTO, engineering or product leader, delivery manager, project owner, compliance professional or part of a team navigating regulation in public or private sectors. If you're interested in making GenAI (or any AI) viable, scalable and sustainable you’ll gain lessons learnt in delivering a production system in a heavily regulated environment.
