Accelerating GenAI Success in Financial Services

Generative AI holds huge promise for financial services, insurance, and legal - but many organisations are stuck in experimentation. In this session, our partners will explore what it really takes to move from costly, slow PoCs to scalable, production-ready solutions. We’ll showcase real-world insight from our collaboration with Bank of Ireland, where we automated complex legal workflows using Intelligent Data Processing (IDP).

You’ll also hear how enterprise FSI teams can use our partners Accelerate framework and Pulse accelerator to fast-track delivery, reduce risk, and unlock ROI - all while staying compliant and cost-conscious.
