Enterprise AI Skills in Practice: From Stanford's Playbook to Skills You Can Use
Enterprise AI Skills in Practice: From Stanford's Playbook to Skills You Can Use
Tuesday, 16 June | 6:30–9:30pm
SQ Collective, Singapore
About the Event
A fireside chat and networking evening where we go beyond the theory and focus on the practical skills that actually make artificial intelligence work.
Seats are limited to keep the conversation genuine. Registration requires approval.
Our starting point is a recent Stanford study — The Enterprise AI Playbook: Lessons from 51 Successful Developments(Stanford Digital Economy Lab, April 2026). We will use that as the jumping-off point — and then go beyond it to the hands-on skills you can take away and apply straight away.
Dr. Ray Han (SEP '22, PhD in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, Director of the Generative AI Center of Excellence at SAP) has spent over a decade deploying artificial intelligence into real enterprise processes across Asia Pacific. He'll share what the playbook looks like from the inside — and how it works in practice.
Arman Tan (MBA '93) will host the conversation — drawing on over 20 years of strategy and transformation work with Fortune 500 companies to bring the corporate perspective.
What we will cover:
What the Stanford study found — and what it missed. The success stories are real. So is the fact that most AI initiatives still fail. We'll talk honestly about both.
Practical skills. Many people don't know what to reach for, how to frame a problem for AI, how to evaluate if it's actually working, or what could go wrong. We'll work through each of these directly — and give you hands-on methods you can apply straight away.
Your questions, your context, and networking. No prior knowledge required, no question is too basic. Stick around after the fireside and compare notes with people navigating the same decisions..
This is an informal session. Especially welcome: the questions you think everyone else already knows the answer to.
A note on registration: Seats are limited and requests require approval. This keeps the group to Stanford alumni and friends we can vouch for. Request early — we will confirm as quickly as we can.
Brought to you by Arman Tan (MBA '93) and Dr. Ray Han (Stanford Executive Program '22).
