Welcome remarks, AI and the future of work | 2026 Data for Inclusive Growth Forum

#InclusiveGrowthForum
Founder and President of the Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth, Shamina Singh, kicks off the 2026 Data for Inclusive Growth Forum and introduces Mastercard Chief of AI and Data Officer, Greg Ulrich and Governor Eric Holcomb, Co-Chair of RAISE US, to discuss AI and the future of work.

In this conversation, they discuss the role of cross-sector leadership in equipping workers, entrepreneurs, and communities for the opportunities and challenges that come with its adoption. The question is no longer whether AI will transform our economy, but how we will prepare people to succeed alongside it. They explore how public-private collaboration can help ensure that AI serves as a catalyst for economic mobility and human flourishing.
