Unlocking the promise of applied AI – practical lessons for CFO
Join us for an engaging fireside chat with Marie Myers, the CFO of HPE, to explore how finance leaders can leverage Agentic AI to transform traditional financial processes. The conversation will begin with a practical example: tackling a routine, labor-intensive function such as operational reporting (that impacts hundreds of employees within an organization) and unpack what it takes to make these initiatives production-ready. From the foundational elements of infrastructure, platforms, processes, and data, to the hurdles of tuning systems, gaining cross-functional buy-in, and managing change, the session will provide candid insights into both the opportunities and realities of this journey.
Marie Myers will also share tangible outcomes, such as a 40% reduction in time spent on repetitive reporting, reshaping the finance organization’s operating model, and enabling sharper, insight-driven decision-making. Building on this success, the dialogue will highlight how finance leaders can extend trust in these systems to more strategic areas like FP&A for even greater impact. This fireside chat will provide a roadmap to reimagine finance in the age of Applied AI.
This is an Accredited Session on the official WEF Agenda.

Abundant health: leveraging AI and virtual health to transform access, transform diagnosis and rethink treatment
The post-COVID landscape for health care systems is challenging, marked by overwhelming demand, increased wait times, and crowded emergency rooms. Following the pandemic, public health funding has decreased, further exposing underlying challenges such as aging populations, widespread system gridlocks, rising costs, provider burnout, exhaustion, outdated or unreliable technology, and workforce shortages.
In today's world, transformative change presents an opportunity for health systems globally to harness cutting-edge technology. Tools like agentic avatar workforces can collaborate fluidly with clinicians and administrative teams, while cloud-based, secure digital solutions help deliver efficient care. This enables health systems to respond swiftly to patient needs and use resources in convenient and cost-effective ways.
Achieving this, however, demands a fundamental reinvention of the health care enterprise—a challenge that may seem insurmountable to many. By bringing together public and private health care organizations, technology firms, life sciences innovators, and leveraging the power of AI and agentic solutions, we can explore new ways to reinvent health care business models and investment strategies. Together, these efforts can help organizations move beyond today’s constraints toward a future where health care is abundant and accessible to all.
This is an Accredited Session on the official WEF Agenda.
