Why Attend?

AI is reshaping industries — from banking and insurance to robotics. At this exclusive event, leading experts will explore how AI and data-driven platforms are accelerating transformation with real, measurable business impact.

 

To make AI truly impactful, we need to embed it at the core of business operations. We will dive into themes like operational efficiency, tech accessibility, and the future of intelligent automation — with a clear focus on scalable, usable, and inclusive AI.

 

Join us at this event and discover how GFT drives innovation through real-world cases from BBVA, BASF, Bradesco, Sanitas and Telefónica, among others. Learn from their first-hand experiences.

 

We will explore concrete cases such as Neura Robotics, a company at the next frontier of AI: Physical AI, and how GFT’s Wynxx solution is democratizing access to artificial intelligence to maximize value across all stages of the software development lifecycle. In addition, we will count with the participation from NVIDIA, a global leader in accelerated computing and deep learning.

 

We’ll ask the big questions:
Are we unlocking AI’s full potential? How do we move beyond the hype to achieve real transformation?
