Background
The contribution of AI to the global economy is projected to hit $15.7 trillion by 2030. AI is seen by many as an engine of productivity and economic growth and is expected to drive greater product enhancements and improvements in consumer demand. Organizations must understand AI's impact to avoid missing out on lucrative opportunities or getting left behind in a rapidly changing landscape. AI is disrupting industries such as healthcare, financial services, e-commerce, legal services, journalism, manufacturing, and others. AI has the potential to revolutionize industries by analyzing and processing large amounts of data quickly, bringing new levels of efficiency to many business systems — from improved customer service to automated processes.
AI technology will continue to advance and shape the world. With its potential for solving complex problems, it is a powerful tool that could greatly improve how organizations operate across all industries. Companies that embrace AI technologies and use them strategically can gain competitive advantages.
AI can help improve your organization's efficiency, accuracy, and productivity while also saving time and money. While many experts anticipate bright future for AI, there are many questions that business leaders, industry experts, and higher education institutions want to explore and embrace new opportunities driven by AI. How will AI help companies to anticipate customer behavior and give them the edge over their competitors? How can investment banks and consulting firms use AI to evaluate business and investment opportunities and build better predictions for various scenarios? How can business leaders integrate AI tools to become more collaborative and team-oriented? Lastly, how can we train business students today for future jobs which will be shaped and changed by AI, and new jobs which don't even exist today? To explore these questions, this conference brings together experts from academia, financial sector, technology, and other sectors, to share insights and explore opportunities that AI brings to today's business world and business education.
