• Design speaker and VIP engagement programs that attract top-tier AI policymakers, CAIOs, and thought leaders
• Drive continuous improvement through post-event data, ROI analysis, and stakeholder feedback
PARTNERSHIPS & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

• Develop 90-day marketing campaigns for conference partnerships, including social media, email, and PR assets
BRAND & ORGANIZATIONAL GROWTH
• Advance KN's positioning as the premier AI governance platform in the US and globally
• Support the KN Ambassador and Advisory Board programs across 15+ countries
• Stay ahead of AI governance trends and emerging event formats — and bring fresh ideas proactively
