Leading the Commonwealth Forward
The ongoing AI revolution is significantly influencing the region’s businesses, workforce, and economy. As the leading voice of the business community, the Chamber is dedicated to ensuring Massachusetts remains at the forefront of AI innovation both nationally and globally, cementing its role in this technological transformation.

Through dynamic discussions, the series highlights how advanced technologies are reshaping the business landscape and regional economy. By leveraging its deep relationships and convening power, the Chamber drives meaningful dialogue by engaging the business community in addressing the daily impact of AI on both employers and employees and elevating understanding of AI’s evolving role in our region.

During our most recent installment, AI Advantage | Leading Through AI Transformation, hosted at Accenture and featuring panelists Karen Kelly of Launch by Lunch, Brett Leary of Accenture, and Bhaskar Chakravorti of Tufts University, the discussion centered on a critical question: What does leadership look like in an AI transformation?
Al momentum is outpacing data-readiness, as siloed, low-quality data & lack of business context & tacit knowledge inhibit safe, scaled Al adoption. Only 7% surveyed-data reinventors-have progressed far enough in building Al-ready data capabilities required for scaled Al adoption of advanced Al.
As part of an enterprise-wide effort to rewire how the organization operates, life sciences leader Bristol Myers Squibb (BMS) moved early to build organization-wide Al fluency, launching an Artificial Intelligence Quotient (“AIQ”) Academy to equip employees with foundational skills.
As the new chairman of the Chamber’s board of directors, Thomas is thinking about how this high-cost region stacks up against others across the country. One of Thomas’s personal projects as Chamber chairman is the creation of a “future of tech” committee in which executives will discuss the best approaches to state policies related to that field that the chamber should endorse.

Transportation First is a Chamber initiative to address the transportation crisis in Massachusetts. Creating a world class transportation system requires policymakers, employers, and residents to recognize that transportation is a public good and should be treated as such urgently. By putting transportation first, the Commonwealth will be in a better position to solve other policy issues which are barriers to the region’s continued growth and prosperity like housing, climate decarbonization and adaption, economic development, economic opportunity, and education access.
The moment calls for a long-term and sustainable mobility funding plan, systemic reform, and a vision for strategic super-investments. This will result in business and job growth across the Commonwealth, timelier and more affordable commutes, more accessible and equitable educational opportunities, lower emissions, livable and more affordable neighborhoods, and inclusive economic development.
The Transportation First series offers a platform to discuss the urgent crisis Greater Boston faces by bringing in experts in the field as well as changemakers to discuss the issues and talk about what the solutions for the future are.
Drawing on decades of experience across state, federal, and White House leadership roles, Luisa shared insights into how Massachusetts is advancing these transformative projects and what it takes to successfully deliver infrastructure at scale, in a conversation led by James E. Rooney, President & CEO of the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce.
This session featured Phillip Eng, Interim Secretary and CEO of MassDOT and General Manager of the MBTA, who shared key insights into the current state of the MBTA, the strategic direction guiding the future of public transportation, and the Administration’s approach to improving transportation infrastructure throughout the Commonwealth.
