@Capcoโs Chicago office was proud to host an incredible #InternationalWomensDay event last week with more than 150 attendees focused on When AI Met Reality, a panel featuring senior women leaders who are building the foundations for trustworthy, enterprise-scale AI. As AI becomes embedded in the #financialservices and #energy industries, the conversation focused on what truly makes #AI work at scale: strong data foundations, clear governance, and decision accountability โ all while balancing innovation with trust. The panel also highlighted the trailblazing women translating regulation, consumer expectations, and complexity into operating models that enable organizations to move forward with confidence.
