WELCOME Thank you for joining us today at the AI World Forum! The AI World Forum is a 2 day educational conference hosted by the Digital Finance Institute. Our goal is to empower through knowledge. We believe that AI is game changing technology that is set to revolutionize the world. People often fear the unknown, but we're here to bridge that knowledge gap and reduce that uncertainty. We want people to be comfortable around this new and exciting technology and to learn to embrace and leverage it! We hope that you leave the AI World Forum enriched with new ideas, passions, partners, projects and even financing.

ABOUT US The Digital Finance Institute is a think tank for financial technology and artificial intelligence. We represent a strategic link in financial innovation between financial institutions, NGOs, academia, regulators and policy makers to promote innovation and vibrancy through thought leadership, engagement, advocacy, research and education.
