Session context: Friday, June 19, 2026 presentation at Forvis Mazars Paris for Aymen Al Saadi, Chief Digital Officer of The Private Office of H.H. Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and Ali Al Khumairi, Director of Procurement. English. Topics requested: infrastructure, architecture, and AI.

The workshop deck opens with executive framing, walks through four sections in order, and closes with strategic intelligence as cross-sector evidence for why semantic infrastructure matters when you scale sovereign AI.

Your workshop agenda
  • Executive framing for the CDO and procurement perspectives.
  • Private AI architecture and operating models.
  • Rapid AI delivery with governance and security built in.
  • Infrastructure stack, platform engineering, and vendor fit.
  • Lessons learned from scaling AI across organizations.
  • Strategic intelligence: semantic spine and cross-sector evidence.
How we'll work together
  • Open conversation, not a vendor pitch.
  • Honest sovereignty trade-offs and operating model checklists.
  • Production patterns only: BOB, ABAC, meta-platform, GAIA.
Confidentiality
  • Materials are strictly confidential for named recipients.
  • Hosted on a private dedicated server with password access.
  • Do not share credentials or forward links externally.
01 Sovereign & Private AI

Private AI Architecture & Operating Models

How to architect and operate private AI at scale. Sovereignty as a spectrum (on-prem, colocation, national cloud, dedicated vendor instances), honest assessment of residency and connectivity, GPU operating models, and transparent lessons from our own sovereignty evolution.

02 AI in Government & Public Sector

AI in Government & Public Sector

Jeremy Ravenel brings direct experience from three public-sector research programs. BFO and CCO are already the deployed standard for national security and biomedical ontologies, not theory. His work with NIH illustrates what a production AI agent looks like in government: an agent continuously scanning longevity research to keep physicians and practitioners current. And NCOR is emerging as the semantic audit authority for AI systems in high-assurance environments, playing the role that financial regulators play for firms.

03 Data Platforms & Analytics

Infrastructure Stack & Platform Engineering

Your infrastructure stack and platform engineering approach. Meta-platform design, stack anatomy, client-adapted infrastructure, deployment models, and vendor fit analysis. Connects private AI architecture to the platform choices needed to operate it in production.

04 Scale lessons & vendor fit

Scale Lessons & Vendor Fit

Lessons learned from scaling AI initiatives across organizations. What breaks when you move from pilot to production: dedicated instance risks, operating model drift, governance at scale, and the patterns that survive multi-program rollouts. Open discussion on what transfers to high-assurance environments.
