Events and recordings
HAILIE runs short, high-value virtual sessions and roundtables on responsible AI in social housing every four weeks. Join the mailing list to receive invites.
How HAILIE sessions work
HAILIE runs free, vendor-neutral virtual sessions approximately every four weeks. Sessions are typically 45–60 minutes and include a short talk, peer discussion or themed breakouts.
Some sessions are themed — exploring AI governance, tenant impact, specific tools, case studies or automation. Others are open for sharing current challenges and progress.
Recordings are published publicly on YouTube where available. Summaries are shared with mailing list subscribers.
All HAILIE sessions are free. There are no sales pitches. Vendors and consultants can participate transparently but not to promote their products.

AI in Social Housing - A Sector View
Lisa Buckingham, Director of Data & Digital at Clarion Housing
This is a candid, non-technical session designed for leaders (CEOs, NEDs, etc) and those in the organisation trying to deliver AI-led performance improvement.
Lisa will share Clarion's real-world journey into AI — what's working, what isn't, and what's still emerging. She'll explore lifelong learning, capability gaps, organisational adoption, and the risks and skills challenges the sector is navigating.
