  • Participate in an interactive discussion with Michael Cavitt, VP of Risk Management at Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Katie Johar, US Automotive and Captive Finance Lead at EY, and Steven Silver, VP, Global Industry Market Leader – Manufacturing at Pega to explore how captives can optimize, protect, and enable the business of today, while leveraging innovation and digital transformation to grow and reimagine the business of tomorrow.
