FinRegLab is launching an initiative with support from the U.S. Department of Commerce Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) to improve credit access for minority-owned companies and other underserved small businesses through the use of non-traditional data sources and mission-based lenders.

The U.S. Department of Commerce and National Institute of Standards and Technology, FinRegLab, and the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI), hosted a virtual conference, “Artificial Intelligence and the Economy: Charting a Path for Responsible and Inclusive AI.”

FinRegLab, in partnership with the U.S. Department of Commerce, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI), are hosting a symposium, bringing together leaders from government, industry, civil society, and academia to explore potential opportunities and challenges posed by artificial intelligence and machine learning deployment across different economic sectors, with a particular focus on financial services and healthcare.
