SUMMARY:Info Session: AI Data Governance Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:As AI systems grow more capable and more embedded in organizational operations\, the data underpinning them demands a new level of rigour. This roundtable\, taking place on October 8\, brings together senior leaders in AI\, data governance\, risk\, and compliance to generate peer-driven insights and actionable outcomes on some of the most pressing challenges in the field. Through facilitated discussion grounded in real practice\, participants will share what’s working\, what isn’t\, and what still needs to be figured out. \nThis information session will outline the roundtable’s scope\, format\, intended audience\, and registration process. We encourage you to share this invitation with colleagues or peers in your organization who may benefit from learning more. \nNote: Roundtable registration will open after the information session. \nDisclaimer: This event is open to Vector Sponsors\, FastLane companies\, Vector Researchers\, and invited partners only. Any registration that is found ineligible will be asked to provide verification and\, if unable to do so\, will not be able to attend the event. Please contact ai-data-gov-roundtable@vectorinstitute.ai with any questions.

SUMMARY:Call for Participation - Advanced Retrieval Augmented Generation Bootcamp
DESCRIPTION:About the event\nThis bootcamp builds on Vector’s first RAG Bootcamp by moving beyond foundational concepts into advanced enterprise Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) challenges. Participants will learn how to handle complex documents\, tables\, multi-source queries\, and dynamic content using advanced techniques such as query rewriting\, hybrid indexing\, evidence validation\, multi-stage retrieval\, agentic retrieval\, and GraphRAG. Through hands-on learning\, participants will evaluate the tradeoffs between retrieval quality\, grounded responses\, compute cost\, latency\, engineering effort\, and data context while developing production-ready enterprise RAG solutions. \nProgram Duration: October 21 – December 3\, 2026 (Tentative) \nOct. 21 – Technical Onboarding: Guided session to set up resources.\nOct. 22 – Nov. 5 – Use-Case Preparation\nNov. 6 – Nov. 30 – Build Phase: Execute the selected use case.\nDec. 1–3 – Build Days \nThis information session will provide an overview of the bootcamp\, including its objectives\, curriculum\, format\, eligibility\, and application process. We encourage you to share this invitation with colleagues or peers in your organization who may be interested in advancing their enterprise RAG capabilities. \nNote: Bootcamp applications will open after the information session. \nDisclaimer: This bootcamp is open to Vector Sponsors\, FastLane companies\, Vector Researchers\, and invited partners only. Any application found to be ineligible will be reviewed\, and applicants may be asked to provide verification. Those unable to verify their eligibility will not be admitted to the program. Please contact advanced-rag@vectorinstitute.ai. with any questions.
