AI governance takes centre stage

EVYD Technology (EVYD) supports the fourth edition of Digital Future Conference & Exhibition (DFCE), Brunei Darussalam’s leading platform that brings together government leaders, regulators, industry, academia, technology providers, and wider stakeholders to advance national dialogue on digital transformation and to shape the nation’s digital development.

As the event’s supporting partner and in line with DFCE 2026 objective to translate digital ambitions into measurable outcomes, EVYD General Manager Abby Tan and EVYD Head of Technology Perry Ning provided technological insights in the panel discussions on ‘Getting AI Governance Right: Building Trust, Enabling Innovation and Supporting Digital Trade’ and ‘Making AI Deliver Real Value: From Innovation to Application’, respectively.

The EVYD general manager highlighted that successful artificial intelligence (AI) operationalisation requires a proportional risk architecture that segments tools based on risk, alongside a clear shared responsibility matrix between developers and institutions.

Balancing local data sovereignty with international integration and establishing rigid compliance frameworks are critical to scaling adoption.

“If there was one thing we could change, it would be to introduce clearer, risk-based AI governance which would allow low-risk AI to be adopted more quickly. High risk applications would continue to require stronger safeguards and meaningful human oversight. This approach would protect society while allowing responsible innovation to move forward,” said Abby Tan.

Meanwhile, the EVYD head of technology highlighted that scalable AI requires more than powerful models, and that trusted data, modern application platforms and secure infrastructure form are the essential backbone for deploying AI reliability, responsibility and effectively across organisations.

At the three-day event, EVYD, in collaboration with UNN, showcased a localised GPU Compute Platform Proof-of-Concept (POC) built for data sovereignty, local deployment, private cloud with AI capabilities, enterprise-grade security and regulatory compliance.

Through EVYD’s AI technological expertise, businesses can start AI development in minutes, maximise GPU utilisation and minimise infrastructure cost, build their own AI models, support end-to-end AI innovation within one platform, and optimise performance across teams on home ground (locally) at UNN Data Centres.

EVYD was honoured to received Minister of Transport and Infocommunications Dato Seri Setia Awang Mohammed Riza bin Dato Paduka Haji Mohammed Yunos yesterday afternoon and showcased several used cases on EVYD AI Open Platform which is designed to process data packages and optimise work tasks.
