How Privacy & AI Governance Actually Drive Growth
n this episode of Digitalk Architects, we sit down with Shayne Adler, Co-Founder & CEO of ATOS, to break down one of the most misunderstood topics in tech: compliance.

Shayne shares how data privacy, AI governance, and smart compliance practices can actually accelerate growth, unblock sales cycles, and protect company value — instead of slowing teams down. We dive into real startup scenarios, AI risks, vendor data exposure, and why compliance should be built from day one, not retrofitted later.

If you’re a founder, startup leader, or digital-first business, this episode will help you rethink compliance as a strategic advantage, not a checkbox.

Topics covered:

Compliance vs. growth: changing the narrative

AI governance and human oversight

Data privacy risks in startups and SMBs
