Organisations that describe digital transformation as simply the incorporation of digital technology into all areas of their business often end up overlooking its power.

However, a digital transformation that puts data (and Artificial Intelligence) at the core of its operations will allow an organisation to create blue oceans and profitability instead of seeing it as a set of processes. This one-day programme looks at why an AI-driven digital transformation is formidable and how it changes the value an organisation brings to its customers, and itself.

Programme Outline

Learning Objectives

By the end of the programme, participants will be able to:

Gain a strategic understanding of how they can better prepare their organisation for AI
Appreciate the high-value business cases that exploits Data and AI
Recognise the risks and ethical issues arising from Data and AI usage
Understand the latest AI breakthroughs like Generative AI
Walk away with a list of “quick wins” – industry use cases they can start right away in their organisation

Programme Outline

Opportunities in AI and how it ties in with digital transformation
AI-driven industry business cases from around the region
AI landscape and maturity stages in organisations
The AI ecosystem (from data ingestion to analytics to organisational transformation)
A C-level guide to artificial intelligence covering subtopics such as “Why AI now?”, high-value industry-specific business cases, ethical AI, AI risks and the need to develop smarter people
Discussion on the latest AI breakthroughs and trends like Generative AI (ChatGPT, DALL-E), deepfakes, the singularity, and the future of humanity
Implementation of analytics and AI in Financial Services
Group activity: AI-driven monetization business case brainstorming and prioritisation: A logical process of analysis and prioritisation to identify “quick wins” AI business cases for the participants’ organisation. The identified “quick wins” business cases will justify the AI proof-of-concepts and projects
