Webinar Abstract

Our Speaker: Arnaud Maréchal will explore the following topic: AI and support functions: what gains can we expect?
  • The valuations of AI startups and hyperscalers have reached astronomical levels. Markets are anticipating a transfer of value from the clients of these “AI players” to the latter.
  • Under the strong influence of marketing from AI companies, consulting firms, and financial analysts, high productivity gains are expected—putting corporate leaders under pressure.
  • Other experts, such as the most recent Nobel Prize in Economics, argue that productivity gains from AI will remain marginal.
  • How are corporate support functions adapting to the AI wave? This webinar will offer insights from Orange’s experience within Finance, Procurement, Logistics, General Secretariat, and CSR support functions.
