Fireside Chat: The AI Technology Boom & Perspectives on Public & Private Capital Markets
Global IIT AI/ML Forum Event
Advent of ChatGPT in November 2022 proved to be the “iPhone Moment” for Artificial Intelligence. There is hardly a sector of the economy which is not impacted by LLMs, Gen AI and now Agentic AI. As expected, there is a huge amount of investment flowing across the capital structure which seems to be chasing opportunities in this space in both Public & Private Markets.
Wall Street Meets Silicon Valley Event Series brings together some of the top brains from IIT Community across Wall Street & Silicon Valley who have worked on both sides of the aisle. The goal is to provide viewers a complete 360-degree view of how Technology Breakthroughs in AI are being aided by Capital Markets to tap a much broader swath of capital base through appropriate diversification of risk.
This event is part of the Wall Street Meets Silicon Valley series organized by the Global IIT AI-ML Forum.
