What’s your experience with AI (artificial intelligence)? Often people say we are doomed because AI will take away our jobs. Others are trying to use AI to make things faster, cheaper and easier. These are two ends of a scale: one with pessimism and fear, the other with ambition and drive. So, what about the middle? Can we make sense of AI and how it relates to the core of who we are as human beings: our values? What does AI mean for us in all aspects of our lives? How can it help us bring our values to life and do good in our world? Organised by Bells Solutions

The financial services sector plays a critical role in society's well-being, economic stability, and political security. Yet, despite substantial investments in regulation, the industry remains plagued by ethical breaches, which reflect individual decisions by people within the sector who choose unethical paths. Why do so many in this industry seem willing to act without ethics, integrity, transparency, or trustworthiness? This question is at the heart of the reforms that are desperately needed. So how can we collectively drive the necessary cultural change within organisations? Organised by Transparency Task Force.

Pause is a circle of belonging where you are welcomed in to meet with like-minded people to pause, engage, listen, be heard, witnessed, and respected. We offer a safe space for sharing, embodying, inquiry, and support, reflecting on the question – “What does it mean to belong?” Our Pause circle is experiential and offers potent practices for learning and unlearning, an invitation to slow down, bring clarity, focus and commitment to taking the next step forward.
