Event demonstrates how new technologies are revolutionizing the business environment

Implementing new technologies in the workplace is no longer a bonus – it is critical to innovation and staying ahead of the competition. As businesses look to adapt to the expectations that the digital age demands, they are required to understand emerging technologies and introduce those that will improve the workplace. On October 18, 2018, the IBM Innovation Forum 2018 will showcase insightful keynote presentations, interactive demos and hands-on activations highlighting how innovations like blockchain, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and quantum computing are changing the business environment.

Morneau Shepell's Michael Lin, senior vice president and chief information officer (CIO), will present AI for mental health: Faster intake, better care. The presentation will highlight how AI technologies can be used to create better outcomes in mental health and wellness support to combat the staggering number of Canadians experiencing mental illness, as well as how CIOs can use their position to make a positive impact on the Canadian mental health crisis.
Media are invited to attend and interview opportunities are available by contacting media@morneaushepell.com.
