Artificial Intelligence ("AI") is reshaping industries, unlocking new efficiencies, and redefining global connections. It is no longer a technology of the future – it has become one of the most powerful drivers of analysis, decision-making, and value creation today.

AI is evolving rapidly from a support function into a strategic core across sectors such as industry, finance, healthcare, and energy. At the same time, this transformation is reshaping global power dynamics, with China and the United States emerging as dominant forces in the AI landscape. 

The Norwegian Chinese Chamber of Commerce ("NCCC") and Wikborg Rein Advokatfirma ("WR") invite you to engage in an enlightening discussion with experts at the forefront of AI innovation: 

  • Silvija Seres, author of "Explain for me AI", mathematician, technology investor, and board member of several leading Norwegian and international companies,
  • Heather Broomfield, Senior AI Advisor and leader of AI R&D lab at Norwegian Digitalisation Agency, 
  • Lars Erlend Leganger, CTO and leader of 24SevenOffice's tech strategy, and previously technology director at PwC, and
  • Arne Byberg, partner at Wikborg Rein's technology department and previously Chief of Staff and Associate General Counsel for Hewlett-Packard Company in Palo Alto, 

From understanding the basics of AI, to the legal landscape, private and public sector transformation, and strategic AI for the future of organisations and practices, we will uncover how businesses can navigate this evolving space. We will explore where AI is heading, how businesses can position themselves, and what this technological shift means for Norway in its relationship with China.

Discover how integrating AI can be meaningful and smart for your business, enhancing productivity and driving growth in innovative ways, all whilst keeping an eye on current global trends. Move beyond the hype and focus on real-world impact.
