Conference Day One - 23rd March 2027

5:15 PM Closing Keynote – The Road to Maturity: Building Compliance That Wins the Business

More controls do not necessarily mean better compliance. Platforms are navigating intersecting regulatory regimes, shifting interpretations and difficult trade-offs, often through operating models not designed for today's level of scrutiny. Drawing on hard-won lessons from more than 16 years across Google and TikTok, Ioanna Lykidi, Head of Digital Regulatory Compliance at TikTok, examines how compliance teams can meet their organisation where it is and build maturity around its real risks. 

• Recognising when additional controls create complexity, not assurance.
• Turning overlapping platform risks into shared, testable controls.
• Defining ownership, decision thresholds and workable escalation routes.
