In the Age of AI, it’s humans who hold the power. We are the ones to decide how and where to derive value from the advanced technologies we create. And if the triple crisis of 2020—a global health pandemic, economic downturn, and renewed calls for racial justice—taught us anything, it’s that we can and should use advanced technology for good. In this keynote fireside chat with 2020 Colorado Entrepreneur of the Year Katica Roy, discover how AI is flipping the script on intersectional gender equity. With AI and other advanced technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, intersectional gender equity is no longer a complicated social issue. It is an achievable, economic opportunity for businesses around the world.
