## Related companies {#related}

How we get from one company to the next: through an event both are at, or a field both are filed under. Each line says which.

- Also filed under [Governance, risk and compliance](../../topics/grc/index.md) (14): [0xbow](../0xbow/index.md), [Airia](../airia/index.md), [Arima](../arima/index.md), [Centre for AI Leadership (C4AIL)](../c4ail/index.md), [Contents](../contents/index.md), [Crystal Intelligence](../crystal-intelligence/index.md), [Data Protection Commission (Ireland)](../data-protection-commission/index.md), [LawVu](../lawvu/index.md), [LEGALFLY](../legalfly/index.md), [Risiq GmbH](../risiq/index.md), [Scrut Automation](../scrut-automation/index.md), [Sphere](../sphere/index.md), [TrustScale](../trustscale/index.md), [Whitespace](../whitespace/index.md).

## Its flows, and where AI agents are in them {#flows}

We have not mapped KPMG's flows yet: how work moves through its product, from a request to a result, and at which steps an AI agent acts. We map them only from public pages (its own site and documentation, its talks), each step with its source, and never guess. If you are at KPMG, the quickest way to get this right is to tell us how it works.

## Our question for them {#question}

As for every company we follow, three questions, not claims. We have not asked KPMG yet. When they answer, it goes here.

1. **Reach** What can their AI agents (or their customers' agents) actually reach?
2. **Mandate** What were they authorised to do?
3. **Gap** Who controls the gap between the two?

## About PrompTugal.news {#about}

**PrompTugal.news**: Technology and AI, in context. The Web Summit Lisbon 2026 edition. Every fact sourced and dated, for the people who are there. Edited by Dinis Cruz, Indi Gupte and Vicky Wang, made with AI agents. Web Summit is named only to say where we report from. Text CC BY 4.0, code Apache-2.0.

- **Why this page exists.** We keep a page on every company we follow at the summit, built only from public pages, so that anyone, KPMG included, can see what we know and where it comes from. Nothing on it is an endorsement.
- **Independence.** Independent. Not affiliated with Web Summit. The team that makes PrompTugal.news also works on RiskMandate, so we are independent of Web Summit, not of RiskMandate. [Our disclosure](../../about/participant.md) says it in full; please weigh what we say with it in mind.
- **Corrections.** If something here is wrong or out of date, we correct it on this page, dated. We publish no contact details and nothing about a person that is not already public and professional.
