Women in Finance Leadership Summit 2026 is designed to help ambitious professionals gain clarity, build the right connections, and accelerate their career momentum in the AI era. This summit brings together outstanding female leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and innovators across finance, AI, fintech, investment, and leadership.

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape the financial industry — from investment analysis and risk management to hiring and operations — this event aims to create meaningful conversations.

Organised by CBAIA — China-Britain Artificial Intelligence Association, this summit brings together female leaders, hiring managers, investors, operators and high-potential talent across finance, FinTech, investment, AI and emerging technologies.

Following the success of CBAIA’s previous Women in AI Leadership Forum, this year’s summit focuses on one of the most important questions for the next generation of finance professionals:

How can we build meaningful careers, stronger networks and real opportunities as AI reshapes the financial industry?

All speakers, moderators and panellists are women.

The event is open to all ambitious professionals.

This is not just a conference.

It is a curated, in-person career acceleration and real connection space.
