Fluela · Mountain Plaza Hotel
Two industries defined by expertise, judgment, and human capital — now confronting fundamental questions about their operating models as AI capabilities accelerate.

This panel convenes senior leaders from both sectors to examine the strategic implications. Where does AI create genuine margin expansion versus commoditisation risk? How do firms maintain differentiation when foundational capabilities become automated? And the workforce dimension: what does responsible transition look like when your talent pipeline was designed for a different economic logic?
