WOMEN + AI

AI DAY

HARTFORD 2026

Connecticut's Inaugural Women in AI Luncheon

Women don't need to catch up on AI. They need to lead it.

April 21, 2026 | 11 AM - 1 PM | Hartford, CT

The Moment We're In

AI is being built right now. The systems being created today will shape healthcare, hiring, finance, education, and daily life for the next 50 years.

And women are largely not in the room.

22%

of AI workers globally are women

<14%

of senior AI executives are women

44%

of AI systems exhibit gender bias

This isn't just a pipeline problem. It's a leadership problem.
