Join a curated group of founders, operators, and investors for a private dinner - co-hosted with Sequoia - focused on how AI is reshaping real-world, operationally complex businesses and driving meaningful impact across both investment strategy and day-to-day operations.

George Robson (Partner at Sequoia) will share their perspectives on where AI is headed, how it’s evolving investment theses, and where they’re seeing the most compelling opportunities emerge. We’ll also hear from OpenAI on what they're seeing in the forefront, alongside operators like Robert Chislett (Partner at Wish You Were Here Hospitality Group) and Max Brenner (Founder & CEO of WithCoverage) on how leading companies are applying AI in practice - with a focus on tangible use cases and real ROI.
