Healthcare & Life Sciences AI Summit

Dear [Supervisor’s Name],

I am requesting approval to attend the Healthcare & Life Sciences AI Summit, hosted by the American Conference Institute on February 23–24, 2027, in New York City.

The Summit is designed for senior legal, regulatory, compliance, privacy and AI governance professionals from pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and healthcare organizations to address the legal and regulatory challenges of AI innovation, commercialization and deployment.

As AI becomes embedded in drug discovery, clinical development and commercial operations, our organization must navigate evolving regulatory expectations, intellectual property considerations, data governance and emerging liability. Attending would provide practical strategies to manage these risks while supporting responsible AI innovation and business growth.

Why This Summit Is Valuable to Our Organization

• Navigate AI Regulation and FDA Expectations: Understand evolving requirements for AI-generated evidence, model validation, clinical trials, medical devices and global regulatory compliance.


• Protect Intellectual Property and Innovation: Explore AI inventorship, patentability, training data rights, freedom to operate and ownership of AI-generated discoveries.


• Strengthen AI Governance and Compliance: Benchmark approaches to enterprise oversight, accountability, human intervention and risk management across R&D and commercial operations.


• Manage Contracting and Third-Party Risk: Gain practical insights into AI vendor diligence, licensing, data ownership, contractual protections and liability allocation.


• Prepare for Emerging Legal Exposure: Examine AI-related litigation, product liability, incident response and compliance risks across the product lifecycle.

Expected Return on Investment

The Summit’s Life Sciences Innovation Track addresses AI in drug discovery, clinical trials, biologics, genomics, pharma commercialization and AI-enabled MedTech. Shared cross-industry sessions provide additional perspectives on governance, regulation, contracting and litigation from organizations developing and deploying AI.

The event also offers optional pre-conference workshops on AI governance, advanced AI contracting and incident response, along with opportunities to pursue applicable Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credits, subject to accreditation and eligibility requirements.

Following the Summit, I will share key regulatory developments, industry benchmarks and actionable recommendations with relevant stakeholders to help strengthen our AI governance, compliance and risk management strategies.
