Scaling the RiskCloud and Agentic AI for Enterprise GRC with Diego Panama

Innovation comes in many areas, and compliance professionals need not only to be ready for it but also to embrace it. Join Tom Fox, the Voice of Compliance, as he visits with top innovative minds, thinkers, and creators in the award-winning Innovation in Compliance podcast. In this episode, host Tom Fox visits with Diego Panama, the new CEO of LogicGate.

They discuss his career from Microsoft product management to scaling Live Ramp to an IPO, building go-to-market at Olo, and joining LogicGate through a planned CEO transition with co-founder Matt Kunkel. Panama describes his focus on scaling operations while preserving a customer-first, values-driven culture and sharpening the company’s positioning as the leading AI GRC platform for enterprise. The discussion highlights AI’s role in moving GRC from check-the-box defense to real-time, strategic enablement, including holistic risk visibility across silos, third-party risk blind spots, and always-on monitoring. Panama explains LogicGate’s workflow agents and the path toward orchestrated, autonomous GRC, with humans setting risk appetite; emphasizes data access, quality, and governance; and outlines product UX evolution from no-code to prompt-driven configuration. He notes boards’ increased attention to GRC due to AI risks and encourages students and practitioners to stay curious and aligned to business outcomes.
