The Chamber of Commerce’s Annual Gala Dinner at Beau Sejour this November will mark the grand finale of the first island-wide AI Sprint, taking place this Autumn.
With headline sponsor PwC, ‘Brave New Island’ brings together the innovators, business leaders, practitioners and champions who have driven the AI Sprint – and charts the course for what comes next.
The evening’s special guest speaker will be Dr Jo Salter MBE, a pioneer in breaking boundaries and driving AI adoption in the business world. Dr Salter is a trailblazer in aviation and leadership and is celebrated for her historic role as the first female fast jet pilot in the Royal Air Force.
Her career has been defined by challenging convention and her keynote promises to inspire Guernsey’s business community as it looks towards an ambitious, AI-confident future.
Alice Gill, the Chamber’s Executive Director, said the dinner would be an event “where the business community truly comes together, and this year it carries even greater significance as the grand finale of Guernsey’s first island-wide AI Sprint”.
‘Brave New Island’ was “about celebrating what we have achieved as a community and looking boldly at what comes next”, she added.
“We have an exceptional evening planned – with fantastic networking opportunities, an inspiring speaker and a room full of the people who are shaping Guernsey’s future.”
