Clay in NY: From Strategy to Execution - Building GTM Systems for the AI Era
"The fist 90% are done. Now to the other 90%."
**In-Person event**
You've read the AI-GTM hot takes. You've also watched a slick demo fall apart three weeks later. This night is for the people who own the number and build the system behind it - three operators who do this for a living, honest about what holds up under pressure, and what looks effortless in a demo but is brutal to build in practice.
This July's Clay Club NY goes past tactics and into systems.
We will give ample time for Q+A.
Cliff Simon, founder of Polaris Ops (AI-first RevOps) and former CRO of The Carabiner Group, with nearly two decades building RevOps and GTM systems.
Elizabeth Niemczyk, who leads North America sales at Aircall and is a GTMfund LP and startup advisor. An operator and investor, she has scaled companies from under $1M to $95M+ in ARR and builds the operating blueprints that turn big strategy into real revenue.
Zach Vidibor, co-founder and CEO of Octave, the generative-GTM platform that turns positioning and messaging into personalized execution and runs natively inside Clay. Before Octave he spent 15 years in sales at LinkedIn, DocuSign, and Dropbox.
Together they get into what is genuinely valuable when you build AI into go-to-market in 2026: where to start, what to ignore, and the foundations that separate systems that compound from stacks that collapse. A real conversation, beyond the one-liner hot takes.
Great networking, practical take-aways and honest conversation, served with Unregular pizza, all in Clay's beautiful New York HQ.
