Join us for a fireside chat with Anusha Dandapani, Chief Data & AI at the United Nations International Computing Centre (UNICC), on how data storytelling becomes the unlock for real AI adoption across teams, organizations, and global systems.
From leading AI initiatives across the UN system to building data-driven solutions in financial services, Anusha has seen firsthand: the difference between AI that gets built and AI that actually gets used.
We’ll go deep on:
Why storytelling is the missing layer in AI adoptionTurning complex data into narratives that drive decisionsBridging technical teams, leadership, and real-world usersLessons from deploying AI across high-stakes, global environmentsHow to communicate AI in a way that builds trust, not resistance
