The CFO Agenda: From AI Investment to AI in Action
The CFO Agenda: From AI Investment to AI in Action
AI spend is growing faster than most budgets were built to handle, and finance is still expected to prove the return. At the same time, CFOs are being asked to put AI to work inside their own function.
Join a small group of finance leaders at the AWS office in Manhattan for a closed-door roundtable co-hosted by AWS and Finout. Two conversations in one room: how to evaluate, fund and govern AI investment, and a candid, under-the-hood look at how AWS Finance has deployed AI across the full finance stack.
Speakers
Pete Gianvecchio, Head of Finance, AWS Industries, AWS
Roi Ravhon, CEO and Co-founder, Finout
Sudipt Kapadia, Head of Financial Services, Solutions Architecture, AWS
