HSBC China Connect (HCC), CFTE, CBAIA and GWAI AI Event: AI in Action
An in-person evening in Canary Wharf on how AI is moving from possibility to practice.
Artificial intelligence is moving from the frontier of technology into everyday work. The question is no longer simply what AI can do, but how it is changing the way we work, build businesses, conduct research and transform industries.
Hosted by HSBC China Connect (HCC), CFTE, CBAIA and Global Women in AI, AI in Action: From Possibility to Practice brings together speakers from academia, enterprise, technology and financial services for keynote talks and a panel with audience Q&A. It is designed for professionals working on AI adoption, founders and product builders, researchers, and members of the host communities.
