Overview of the webinar
Colorado SB 24-205, signed into law in 2024, establishes a risk-based framework for the governance of artificial intelligence systems that make or substantially inform consequential decisions affecting Colorado consumers. This session delivers a detailed analysis of the statute's scope, key definitions, and obligations for both developers - who create and train AI systems - and deployers - who use those systems in business contexts. Participants will explore how the law defines 'high-risk AI systems,' the categories of consequential decisions covered (including employment, credit, housing, education, and healthcare), and how algorithmic discrimination protections apply. The webinar will also address practical compliance requirements including consumer disclosures, risk assessments, governance documentation, and appeal rights. Attendees will receive a compliance roadmap and understand how Colorado's AI Act interacts with federal law and other state-level AI regulations emerging across the U.S.

Why should you attend?
Colorado has enacted one of the most comprehensive state-level AI governance laws in the United States, taking effect February 1, 2026. Colorado SB 24-205 imposes significant obligations on developers and deployers of high-risk AI systems - including requirements around algorithmic discrimination, consumer notifications, impact assessments, and human oversight. Organizations operating in Colorado or deploying AI systems that impact Colorado residents must act now to understand their legal obligations and build compliant AI governance programs. This webinar provides an in-depth walkthrough of the Act's requirements, practical compliance strategies, and the operational changes needed to meet the law's mandates before enforcement begins. Compliance professionals, legal counsel, and technology leaders will find this session essential for building a proactive regulatory response.
