Radio 24’s Digital Round Table is scheduled for 16 June from 2.30 pm to 4.00 pm: “Banking Reinvention: Strategy and Competitiveness in the Age of AI”, moderated by Sebastiano Barisoni, deputy executive director of Radio 24 and presenter of the programme Focus Economia.

The Italian banking sector has entered a new phase of transformation, in which Artificial Intelligence is establishing itself as a strategic driver of competitiveness and growth. The adoption of AI is, in fact, gradually becoming central to banking, with an impact set to profoundly transform key areas such as lending, risk management, operations and customer relations.

A transition that opens up significant opportunities, but which also calls for fresh thinking on how to introduce and manage these technologies in order to strike a balance between innovation and security.

So how can AI be integrated effectively and responsibly? What risks do those who fall behind face, and how will the human role in decision-making processes evolve?

The question, in fact, is no longer whether to adopt these technologies, but how to do so in a structured manner, by developing the necessary skills, advanced governance models and more agile processes. In this context, the ability to adapt is a decisive competitive factor for financial institutions.

Contributing to the live stream were: Alessandro Barardi, Head of Group AI Products at UniCredit; Paolo Ceschi, Head of Financial Services at Accenture Italia; Emanuela Girardi, Founder of POP AI and Chair of the AI, Data and Robotics Association (ADRA), and Massimo Proverbio, Chief Data, AI and Technology Officer at Intesa Sanpaolo. Drawing on their experiences and perspectives, the round table will offer a comprehensive analysis of the challenges and opportunities associated with the changes currently underway.

In a rapidly changing landscape, the transformation has already begun and is set to redefine the relationship between banks, businesses and customers, marking a turning point for the entire financial ecosystem.

Participation is free of charge, subject to registration on radio24.it, in the Events section and in the new section dedicated to Digital Round Tables on the homepage. You can watch the live stream on the radio24.it website and on the Ilsole24ore.com website.

The event is organised in partnership with Accenture.

Communication campaign: the DRT is supported by a radio, digital, social media and print campaign across the internal media channels of the Il Sole 24 ORE Group
