    You can't govern what you don't understand, and especially what you can't see. This is just one of many reasons why Lexi Reese started Lanai - to help solve the AI governance problem and bring visibility and transparency to "shadow AI". She's working with the executives that are on the hook for AI outcomes, and she's building Lanai for the CIOs that are scaling adoption, the CISOs mitigating risk, and the board directors, executives and AI Councils that need to prove ROI! Thrilled to have her speaking at Alpha Accelerate!

    The invisible infrastructure is where transformation actually happens. That's why we're thrilled to have Lexi Reese, CEO & Co-Founder of Lanai, join us for Alpha Accelerate - our AI Growth & Governance Summit at the Nasdaq MarketSite on November 19th. Lexi understands something most leaders miss: you can't govern what you can't see. She's spent her career building the invisible infrastructure that shapes how we work and live. At Google, she led the multi-billion dollar ML-powered programmatic advertising platform that became the company's third-largest revenue source - infrastructure so fundamental to the internet economy that most people never think about it, yet it processes billions of automated decisions daily. At Gusto, she scaled the customer base to 200,000+ businesses and 1 million employees, driving 30x revenue growth while building the payroll and benefits systems that quietly support workers' livelihoods. That experience led Lexi to recognize what she calls the "Blind AI Mandate" problem - companies telling employees to use more AI while having no system to track what tools are being used, what they're being used for, or what risks they're creating. At Lanai, which she co-founded with former VMware CTO Steve Herrod, she's building the infrastructure that makes enterprise AI visible, secure, and impactful. The kind of system that processes decisions quietly in the background. The kind most people never think about but can't live without. This is exactly the conversation boards need to be having right now. In partnership with Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, Nasdaq, Spencer Stuart & super{set}.
