Light x Lovable x McKinsey QB Finance Hackathon

​​Choose a CFO headache. Build an AI app to solve it.

​Join us at McKinsey & Company's New York City office, where Light, Lovable, and QuantumBlack by McKinsey are teaming up to give finance teams a unique opportunity to bring AI into their operations.

​With direct guidance from Light (the world’s leading AI-native finance platform) Lovable (the world’s leading AI app-building platform) and QuantumBlack by McKinsey (the world’s leading AI consultancy). You’ll turn your biggest finance headaches into real AI apps your company can start using from day one.

​This is not another workshop or panel.
It’s a full-day hackathon where CFOs & finance teams build, and everyone walks away with new tools, new ideas, and new connections.
