Orion Willis is a seasoned financial planner and the founder of Prime Wealth Advisors, a firm dedicated to providing clients with comprehensive, personalized financial planning services. With over 28 years of experience in the financial industry, he has spent his career helping individuals and families navigate the complexities of wealth management, retirement planning, estate planning, and tax strategies. His primary focus is delivering integrated financial solutions, ensuring clients achieve long-term financial security and peace of mind.

Raised in Lake Side, Arizona, Orion's interest in finance began early, which led him to pursue a degree in finance at Arizona State University. At ASU, he gained valuable experience through an internship at MetLife, where he noticed a significant gap in the financial services industry. While many people had financial planners, their advice was often fragmented, with each advisor focusing on a single aspect of their finances. This observation inspired him to establish a firm that would take a more comprehensive approach to financial planning, combining wealth management, tax planning, estate planning, and other services in one place.

In 2002, Orion founded Prime Wealth Advisors to provide clients with a holistic approach to financial planning. His firm offers a full range of services, including retirement planning, tax strategies, estate planning, and wealth management. By addressing all aspects of a client’s financial life, Prime Wealth Advisors ensures clients receive customized plans designed to meet their unique needs and goals.

As a fiduciary, Orion is committed to always acting in the best interests of his clients. He is legally obligated to put his clients’ needs ahead of his own, ensuring that every recommendation he makes benefits them, not him. This commitment to integrity and trust has earned him the loyalty and respect of his clients, who know they can rely on his guidance for sound financial decisions.

Outside of his professional life, Orion values his family and is committed to his community. He is married with two children and enjoys spending time with them whenever possible. He also actively supports local initiatives, such as the Sun City West Pickleball Club, where his contributions have helped foster growth and support for charitable efforts. Orion Willis continues to positively impact those around him through his work and personal life.

Hernan Huwyler is a Global Risk Management Executive and the Academic Director at IE Law and Business School (Executive Education). With a dual background as an MBA and CPA, Hernan specializes in the intersection of Law, Technology, and Quantitative Risk.

He focuses on "translating" complex regulatory frameworks (EU AI Act, GDPR, ISO 42001) into actionable architectures for engineering and business teams. Unlike traditional compliance officers, Hernan advocates for data-driven risk management, moving beyond "heatmaps" to utilize Monte Carlo simulations, convolution models, and Python-based risk quantification.

Hernan has led Risk, Control, and Audit functions for major multinational corporations across Europe and the Americas. He writes and speaks extensively on Adversarial AI, Algorithmic Auditing, and the financial quantification of Cyber Risk. Past keynote venues include Risk Awareness Conferences (>2,000 risk managers), IIA and ISACA Summits, ProcureCom Europe, IKN Madrid, IE University, and closed-door sessions for international organizations and national regulators. Hernan’s talks consistently rank in the top 5% of conference feedback scores because he makes complex security requirements, business needs and regulations feel like a competitive advantage.

Speaking Topics:

AI Governance: Implementing ISO 42001 and navigating the EU AI Act.
Risk Quantification: Why "Impact x Probability" fails and how to use convolution models.
Adversarial AI: Balancing transparency with security to prevent data poisoning.
AI ROI: Risk-adjusted financial modeling for Generative AI deployments.

Ready-to-Submit Talk Proposals:

Session 1: The Technical/Quant Talk

Title: Kill the Heatmap: Quantifying AI Risk with Python & Monte Carlo Simulations
Abstract: Most organizations manage AI risk using colorful 5x5 "heatmaps." This is mathematically flawed and dangerous for high-stakes AI deployment. In this talk, we will ditch the gut-check methodology. I will demonstrate how to use convolution and Monte Carlo simulations to model the "tail risk" of AI hallucinations and regulatory fines. You will leave with a method to calculate the actual financial exposure of your models—no expensive GRC software required, just math and logic.

Session 2: The Governance/Security Talk

Title: The Transparency Trap: How to Audit AI Without Creating Vulnerabilities
Abstract: New standards like ISO/IEC 12792 demand AI transparency, but in the age of Adversarial Machine Learning, "oversharing" is a security vector. If you reveal your full architecture and training sources, you invite data poisoning and model inversion attacks. This session outlines a "Tiered Disclosure Architecture." We will discuss how to route specific data to auditors, regulators, and users differently, ensuring compliance with the EU AI Act without handing the keys to bad actors.

Session 3: The Business/Strategy Talk

Title: The Real Cost of Intelligence: A Risk-Adjusted Framework for AI ROI
Abstract: Companies are deploying Generative AI based on productivity hype, but they are ignoring the "OpEx Iceberg"—model drift, inference costs, and liability reserves. This talk presents a financial framework for calculating the true ROI of AI. We will cover how to factor in the "Risk Delta" (new risks vs. automated risks), calculate the Levelized Cost of AI (LCOAI), and determine when to build vs. buy based on process uniqueness. A session for leaders who need to justify the cloud bill to the CFO.
