Accenture UK & Ireland

Did you know we have a Generative AI studio in London? 🤔 Last week, we had an incredible day in the Fenchurch Street office. MC'd by Matt Prebble, the event brought together our people, partners and clients for a showcase of our #GenAI capabilities and demonstrations. A huge thank you to Christopher Lane for hosting a panel full of data and AI experts, and Paul Daugherty and Michael Bhaskar for leading the conversation around the responsible development and adoption of the latest technologies.

As the headline sponsor of the second UK Women in Work Summit, we were proud to stand alongside industry leaders for an inspiring and action-oriented day. The summit, hosted by Mariella Frostrup and co-hosted by Nighat Arif, featured a remarkable lineup of speakers, including our very own Shaheen Sayed and Amanda A., alongside Lord Stuart Rose, Alex Mahon, Sue Fox, Cordi O'Hara OBE FEI and Clare Barclay. The event reinforced the urgency of creating a workplace culture that champions gender equity - equity which must be embedded in all aspects of an organisation for real change to be achieved. As Gary Adey explained on the day: "commitment to change needs to be like confetti and spread all over the organisation." Thank you to everyone who spoke, attended, and is contributing to this much needed conversation 🤝 Find out more about gender equality at Accenture: https://accntu.re/47VNV6J Asset description in comments.

Last week we had the pleasure of hosting around 100 clients at The Dock for an exploration into Generative AI and the value it can bring when implemented correctly. Our very own Enda King hosted a panel including Mairead Cullen, Ciaran Doyle and Paul Daugherty, which looked into what leaders can do to drive that value across their organisations. Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to the days' success. 💜 https://accntu.re/3ZWdhPN #GenAI #IrishBusiness [Asset description: 5 page image carousel. 1 - Audrey O'Mahony, Enda King, Hilary O'Meara, Paul Daugherty and Denis Hannigan stand in front of a large digital screen, smiling to camera. 2 - Denis Hannigan, Paul Daugherty, Enda King, Mairead Cullen, Amar Narayan, Hilary O’Meara and Ciaran Doyle stand conversing. 3 - Paul Daugherty interacts with a bright, purple coloured screen. 4 - Mairead Cullen, Ciaran Doyle and Enda King are seated and conversing on high stools on stage, with the backdrop title reading 'Navigating Today, Empowering Tomorrow'. 5 - Paul Daugherty and Hilary O'Meara stand smiling to camera in front of a large digital screen which reads 'Accenture Gen AI Leadership Series'.]

We are already seeing a new world made by generative AI running at scale, where businesses are embracing productivity gains and more. But did you know that companies that apply generative AI to customer-related initiatives can expect to achieve 25% higher revenue after 5 years than companies focused only on productivity? Find out more 👉 https://accntu.re/3MWc9UB [Video description: Upbeat music starts and the animation opens on a purple dialogue box and "New campaign" written above it. Text "social, tech jogger, background" is typed into the box and prompts variation of images corresponding to the words in the background behind the box. A mouse cursor drops a pattern image into the bar, and the final image of a colourful wall matching the joggers worn by a person in the video is generated. The person is also wearing white trainers. Text "Get started using generative AI for customer growth" with an arrow shows up at the end, followed by the Accenture logo on a black backdrop.]

We're looking back at Global Economic Summit this #ThrowbackThursday. It was incredible to join the conversation in Co Kerry, working with local and global organisations to develop new solutions to the challenges we're facing worldwide. 🌍 From navigating change and responsibly harnessing AI to sustainable food systems and technological transformation of healthcare, world-leading experts shared their thoughts and provoked conversations we're still taking part in today.
