The theme was “AI for Inclusive Innovation” and we had the pleasure of hearing Kristine Dahl Steidel, CEO of Microsoft, and Trine Strømsnes, CEO of Cisco, share their experiences regarding the use of AI in their services and how they incorporate inclusivity into the design and accessibility of their services. We were also introduced to The Diversity Index by Manav Rihel Kumar. The event was brilliantly led by ODA Network’s own Kine Dahl and Kainaat Qaiser Mir.
Event Highlights
🧭 «Navigating AI’s Potential: Decoding CEO Dilemmas» – Gain insights into the challenges that CEOs encounter when harnessing AI’s potential for value creation.

Only 15% have frameworks for AI utilization, and Norway is behind the other Nordic countries in embracing new technologies.

🧰 “Using tech to connect diversity to value creation: A must-have tool for all CEOs” – Get acquainted with how you can move D&I efforts to the next level. The discussions brought forth essential AI-related topics, including challenges related to data quality, environmental impact, AI bias, and responsible leadership and maturity.
👩🏽🤝👨🏼 Together, we also explored how we can unleash the potential of AI for inclusive innovation. We delved into the importance of diversity and collaboration, and we see great value in connecting business, academia, and government to create a sustainable future. With top leaders who dare to think outside the box and individuals who view their uniqueness as a strength, we can truly shape a world where AI changes lives for the better.
