BGD x Salesforce Roundtable

AI Leadership in Times of Geopolitical Uncertainty

AI is both enabling enormous productivity gains and fuelling geopolitical rivalries, leading to disruptive changes across many sectors of the economy and the entire value chain. As a result, governments and businesses seek various strategies to succeed. On the one hand, governments are actively pursuing leadership by promoting financial incentives, public programs, and regulations. On the other hand, businesses are developing cutting-edge technologies, fundamentally adapting their business models, and investing in their future competitiveness.

The BGD x Salesforce Roundtable explored how businesses and governments in both Europe and the US are approaching this new reality.
