Indonesia Decision-Makers Roundtable - Jakarta
Overview
ASEAN's Financial institutions are moving beyond copilots, and toward agents capable of taking action. In 2027 - the challenge is no longer be intelligence. The challenge is control.

Join us and our partners Kyndryl and Microsoft to explore how financial institutions are moving from AI experimentation to trusted execution, where every action has authority, every decision is traceable, and every outcome is accountable. YOU - will be at the center of this decision-making!
