Join us at GHC where a FINOS panel will explore practical steps for tackling bias in software engineering and Gen AI, drawing on best practices around AI Fairness and FINOS' AI Readiness project, which brings together leading FSIs and tech practitioners to develop a responsible Governance Framework & uses case to ensure trust, inclusion and safety are at its heart—raising the bar towards a more equitable and inclusive tech future. 

 

Organized by FINOS (the Fintech Open Source Foundation), this panel addresses bias in software engineering, in financial services and beyond. Despite recognizing its paramount importance, DEI and bias remain challenges in software development.

In 2022, FINOS launched its DEI Strategic Initiative, making significant strides in increasing awareness and participation from underrepresented groups in the industry. In 2024, the DEI SIG aims to expand leadership opportunities, prioritize diverse talent development, and ensure inclusivity across FINOS projects, events, and software development.

 From the organizers:

At GHC 24, you’ll do more than join your community. You’ll become part of an unstoppable force driving change in the tech industry and propelling us toward a future where the people who imagine and build technology mirror the people and societies for whom they build it.
