About this event
Across accountancy, legal, banking and the wider professional services, firms are investing heavily in AI, market intelligence and client insight. Yet many still struggle to turn that information into action — to spot the opportunity, or the client need, before a competitor does.
This session brings together senior leaders from across professional services to examine what separates genuinely predictive advisers from reactive ones, and where intelligence is already driving measurable commercial value. Expect a moderated discussion, audience Q&A, and informal networking over breakfast.
