AI adoption has accelerated quickly across industries, but the benefits are proving harder to capture. One challenge is to translate AI into measurable value. While many organisations are embedding AI into strategy and operations, the results remain uneven. This disconnect is also visible in workforce strategies, companies need to rethink roles, workflows and business models so that technology and talent evolve together. Without that alignment, the promise of transformation and broader economic empowerment risks remaining out of reach.

This Financial Times webinar, hosted in partnership with Standard Chartered, and linked to the Business Book of the Year Awards, will bring together business leaders and leading authors and thinkers to examine how organisations can move beyond adoption towards impact. With a global perspective, the discussion will explore how AI can be used to reshape work in ways that are both commercially effective and more inclusive – linking skills, jobs and long-term economic mobility in a more coherent way.
