Look, we get it. You can’t go five minutes without some expert predicting how AI — Generative AI, in particular — is going to reinvent the world and retail banking along with it.
All the predictions, all the hype, all the warnings. They’re overwhelming, confusing, even a bit exhausting. Meanwhile, the pressure to keep up — externally from competitors, and internally among your own team — continues to build.
So what should you do? And how?
The Financial Brand Forum 2024 will help you cut through all the AI noise, by giving you the solutions and strategies that work now, not in the distant future. This year’s program features multiple deep, dedicated sessions led by industry leaders and experts who will show you how to set your AI priorities and execute a strategy that will deliver real-world impact in the coming year, not sometime in the next decade.
Our 2024 AI program includes:
