Expertise: Consulting > AI Labs
One-day workshops designed to give you the latest insights into AI, emerging technologies and trends for the finance function
What is AI Labs?
AI (Artificial Intelligence) Labs is a one day session designed to future-proof your finance function through a mixture of presentations and collaborative exercises, which diagnose the present state of your finance function from a technological perspective. You’ll leave the session with actionable steps to further prepare and integrate developing AI technology into your finance strategy.
Why do I need AI Labs?
The continual development of AI presents an opportunity to finance teams to reduce the amount of manual, repetitive tasks and focus on initiatives that help move the organisation forward. AI can reduce inefficient processes, automate workflows and remove delays, analyse and present data in a digestible format and utilise the knowledge gleaned to improve processes and communication next time. AI Labs will provide you with a roadmap to leverage AI in your finance function and benefit from the reduction in administrative workload.

"It has been a pleasure from first point of contact to project finalisation to work with VantagePoint. During the entire technology implementation project, we felt comfortable that VantagePoint prioritised us as a customer, understood our needs, closely monitored the time plan and added resources to meet deadlines when needed. The willingness to go that extra mile for customer success was highly appreciated."
