Winners of the first AI in Finance Awards
The ‘AI in Finance’ course was designed, by CFTE and Ngee Ann Polytechnic, to deliver financial professionals a good understanding of emergent technologies shaping the industry’s future. Following on from the success of that programme, we partnered with Ngee Ann Polytechnic again to prepare an assignment that helps learners apply the expertise gained from the course into developing practical, real-world business ideas promoting AI in Finance.
This assignment would be assessed and selected candidates would be recipients of the inaugural AI in Finance Awards, an honour that illustrates their commitment and ingenuity.
Proposals and candidates would be assessed and whittled down into a shortlist of the 10 strongest ideas, with 3 winners to be decided by our judging panel of great industry expertise.
