Esther Gallo AI Innovator of the Year Awards

 

The AI Innovator of the Year Awards are designed to recognize business leaders who have driven business transformation through innovative AI projects. Held each year as part of the AI Summit, these prestigious awards showcase exceptional work in developing and implementing breakthrough applications of AI in business.

Faethm’s comprehensive analysis of Mastercard’s workforce data revealed granular details that gave Mastercard the confidence they were making the right decisions for both the business and their employee’s wellbeing. In particular, the analysis surfaced remoteability at a task level, showing which specific tasks could be undertaken remotely and the extent to which each task required human interaction. The data also assisted Mastercard to gain a clear view of the in-office time that each organizational unit required to maintain productivity​.

All of this is made possible through Faethm’s unique, future-focused AI, which analyses how automating and augmenting technologies will impact work and workers up to fifteen years into the future. Faethm’s vast data sets capture two billion of the world’s workforce. This data includes a proprietary occupation ontology, a technology taxonomy of 16 major emerging technologies and data sets that incorporate tens of thousands of work tasks, occupations and skills. Faethm’s future-of-work predictive analytics are recognized globally as a world first and have been used by leading organizations and governments around the globe to chart successful paths to the future.
