Panel: Technology for Leaders: Decision Making 2.0

The remit of the modern decision maker at global companies has expanded exponentially over the past few years, with many business leaders and decision makers saying AI will transform and augment how decisions are made. What are the technological ideas and digital transformations triggering these seismic shifts in how we work and make decisions? How can we best communicate these often complex and disruptive technical ideas shaping the industry?

Gartner believes augmented intelligence will create up to $2.9 trillion of business value and 6.2 billion hours of worker productivity globally by 2021. At the dawn of this new era of AI, where a new kind of partnership between humans and machines is fast emerging, in what ways can tomorrow’s leaders adopt these digital transformations?
