Women in AI and Finance Workshop


2020 ACM International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Finance (ICAIF)

14 October 2020


Artificial intelligence and machine learning have the potential to transform finance with wide-ranging applications from fraud detection to digital investment advisors. Our goal is to bring together women at the intersection of AI and finance and create a forum where they can share their experience, ideas and vision. We encourage industry professionals, AI/ML researchers and practitioners to participate in the workshop and advance AI in Finance through collaboration. Hopefully, we can all learn from each other’s perspectives and make some new connections along the way.
