Bridging the Gap between AI and the Third Sector
Emerging technologies like AI are helping companies to innovate, gather previously unattainable insights, improve productivity, and increase profitability. Meanwhile, the cost of living crisis, climate change, and inflation are disproportionately affecting the most vulnerable in our society, and causing increasing pressure on the charity sector at a time when both giving and volunteering have declined. AI and data skills that could help them streamline workloads, increase impact, and better support their beneficiaries are often just out of reach for these organisations.
Join a roundtable discussion led by data infrastructure charity DataKind UK with their board's Vice-Chair and Magic Breakfast CEO Lindsey MacDonald; Learning with Parents CTO Peyman Owladi; Softwire Delivery Director Laura Phillips; and DataKind UK Ethics advisor Michelle Seng Ah Lee. Together, we’ll discuss how we can bridge this gap by making the most of the incredible data skills in the private sector and supporting ESG goals, and share innovative uses of emerging technologies for social good.
