Let's Get Real: AI. Conference 19 March 2026. Conway Hall, London

The 2026 conference will focus on AI by exploring tools, use cases, governance and strategy, all in the context of what it means to be a cultural organisation trying to get the best from technology.

Keynote speakers

Alice Kershaw - Head of Digital Transformation, Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts

Jorge Lopes Ramos - Artist and researcher. Co-founder, ZU-UK and SIMFONIK. Professor, University of Greenwich.

The day will also feature insights from the brilliant, brave and forward-thinking organisations who comprise this year's Let's Get Real cohort including Scottish Ballet, National Museum Wales, London Symphony Orchestra and Bristol Museums.

Alongside LGR case studies, guest speakers from the wider cultural ecosystem will share insights on the strategic challenges that AI brings to the sector. Plus, our popular Crit Room returns with industry experts sharing practical, troubleshooting advice.
