Our objective at the Women in AI and Finance workshop/reception is to cultivate a diverse and inclusive community, equipping individuals to navigate the ever-evolving intersection of AI and Finance.
In today's increasingly AI-driven world, where applications span various sectors, the financial industry emerges as one of the most transformative domains. However, despite the progressive nature of this field, women often face unique challenges that can hinder their career growth.
Our workshop/reception is dedicated to empowering early-career professionals by offering an engaging platform for learning and networking. We place a strong emphasis on mentorship and fostering a supportive, collaborative network. We bring forth insights from successful women leaders in the finance industry. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in open discussions about career challenges and opportunities, learn from others' experiences with mentorship, and establish meaningful professional connections during dedicated networking sessions.
We will be hosting our event on Nov 15, 2024 during dinner time with the following agenda:
