Mia x Deloitte: Global AI Leadership Roundtable 2023

In September 2023, we had the honor of hosting a Global AI Leadership roundtable discussion with Deloitte at the Deloitte office in Washington DC, focusing on women's leadership in AI.

This Global AI Leadership Roundtable microcosm of what the AI world should ideally reflect: diversity, inclusion, and an unwavering commitment to breaking barriers. The roundtable brought together a diverse group of remarkable leaders and pioneers from various sectors, including business, media, education, nonprofit, and community partners.

Our discussions amplified the importance of women's leadership and upskilling, especially for those from non-technical backgrounds, in the rapidly changing AI landscape.

Here are 3 key focuses that emerged from the event:

🌐 Exploring Opportunities: We deep-dived into the opportunities AI offers for women's career advancement, upskilling, and leadership, evaluating the current global trends and directions.

🌐 Tackling Challenges: Collaboratively, we faced the challenges women encounter in AI, basing our discussions in real-world scenarios and potential solutions.

🌐 Mapping Solutions: The roundtable concluded with actionable strategies to empower more women in leveraging AI in their professions and daily lives.

At Mia - Mission Impact Academy, we couldn't be more excited about the future. The discussions at the roundtable reinforced our commitment to our mission.

We're passionate about ensuring AI isn't just a mirror of society's status quo but is instead a beacon of what society can achieve with diverse perspectives at the helm.

A special thank you to Combiz Richard Abdolrahimi, Esq., J.D., LL.M. from Deloitte for hosting us and to every participant for their invaluable contributions. Together, we can shape the future of AI, where every voice and talent matters.

Let's continue this important conversation and drive change. The next Global AI Leadership discussions by Mia are set for Cop 28, and Davos World Economic Forum week. We are looking forward to welcoming you to our future discussions!
