Venwise Pod Live: An Honest Conversation on AI Leadership

​Venwise, in collaboration with Industrious, will host a live Pod during AI Week NYC. A Pod is the core Venwise format: a small, trusted group of executives who meet regularly to workshop their most pressing challenges. Unlike a panel, a Pod is unscripted, candid, and focused on peer-to-peer problem solving.

​As part of AI Week NYC, our Pod Leader will guide four senior technology leaders through an open conversation on the tensions and dilemmas of AI — from ethical risks and regulatory uncertainty to organizational impact and team dynamics. Pod members will share and debate their approaches to leading organizations through a rapidly evolving ecosystem shaped by AI. The audience will witness an authentic, unscripted leadership dialogue that blends vulnerability, debate, and actionable insights.

​
Our Pod Leader: Erik Schreter

​Our Pod:
Brian Murphy - CTO @ SeatGeek, fmr CTO @ Tumblr, VP Eng at New York Times

​Satwik Seshasai - tech/product lead at Compass through IPO (NYSE:COMP), CTO of multiple acquired startups (Founding->A,A->B,C+)

​Jay Chakrapani - Co-Founder @ Corbo.ai, fmr CPO at GLG, BrainPop

​Yony Feng - CTO @ Ernesta, Founding CTO @ Peloton

​Our attendees/audience: We have limited space and the discussion will be focused on operating a business today. The attendees will play a part and so we are reserving the space for peers who are also currently leading companies.

​This event is part of #AIWeekNY by Pulse NYC -- a community-led festival celebrating innovation across the AI ecosystem. More at https://pulse.nyc/ai-week/
