What makes you trust what you read or hear? In an age where anyone can manipulate reality online, the general public is exposed to a flood of misinformation. Traditional #journalism has lost its grip as the trusted source of news.

How do editorial teams craft a story? And what makes a story a headline? 👉 Join Séverine Ambrus, RTS - Radio Télévision Suisse journalist and producer of the 19:30 news, at our last afterwork event in 2024.

Is #AI the brave new world of sustainable finance? This is the question Rodolphe Bocquet will ask when kicking-off our world café at #BuildingBridges24. Join us on 12.12.2024 at 15.30 CET. While Sustainable Finance is shifting from an era of data scarcity to data abundance, Artificial intelligence #AI will provide capabilities to streamline data collection and curation. This will make relevant data available at scale and provide a playing field. Additional layers of decision useful insights can be created and will question the business model of the sustainability financial service providers. Interestingly: far from making us dumber, #AI will require from us to become much smarter.

lmagine it is 2030 and #AI has been harnessed effectively to accelerate sustainable finance. Tech startups played a key role in this process towards achieving #SDGs. What were the three actions taken since 2025 that made this happen? Join the Geneva Macro Labs at #BuildingBridges24 to discuss this scenario. Diana Diaz Castro will lead our World Café on tech startups. We'll discuss why accelerating their financing is critical for leveraging Artificial Intelligence #AI in sustainable finance. What unique role do tech startups play in driving innovation for impact? #ImpactInvesting #SustainableDevelopment
