Love Ventures Presents: London Live
AI AT WORK: THE REAL-WORLD IMPACT ON THE UK’S PRODUCTIVITY PROBLEM
Join us for the latest edition of London Live, Love Ventures’ flagship event for our investor community. Hosted in central London this September, the evening will bring together leading voices from the AI, Future of Work, and early-stage investing ecosystem to explore one of the defining questions of our time: How will AI actually move the needle on UK productivity?
This private event is designed exclusively for investors, founders, and advisors within the Love Ventures network. It will offer not only a front-row view into the companies reshaping the world of work, but also the opportunity to connect directly with the people building them.
What to Expect
WELCOME FROM GENERAL PARTNERS
Reflections on the evolving Love Ventures thesis, and how our investments are aligning with the UK’s need for innovation-led growth.
FIRESIDE CHAT: AI IN PRACTICE
A candid conversation on how AI is already transforming productivity across sectors and where the biggest opportunities lie in the decade ahead. Moderated by Mike Butcher MBE, one of Europe’s most influential technology commentators, formerly Editor-at-Large at TechCrunch and founder of The Europas. Mike has advised UK Prime Ministers, interviewed global leaders from Tony Blair to Jimmy Wales, and co-founded non-profits including Techfugees and TechVets.
In conversation with Dom Hallas, Executive Director of the Startup Coalition, the independent advocacy group for UK startups and scaleups. Dom was named by Politico in 2023 as one of the “20 People Who Matter in UK Tech” and has helped deliver major policy wins for the ecosystem, from new tech visas to the bailout of SVB UK. He also sits on the UK Government’s Digital Economy Council.
FOUNDER PANEL: BUILDING THE FUTURE OF WORK
