Investing in AI: How to Diversify with Founder Economics - An intimate dinner for private investors
AI in the Real Economy
An intimate FutureSight dinner
The loudest AI conversations are about models. The most interesting ones are happening in industries that run on paper, people, and trust: legal, construction, and asset management.
Over dinner, we’ll hear from three founders who have spent years putting AI to work in those industries. They’ll talk about what’s working, what’s surprised them, and where each industry goes next.
In the chairs
Rich Emrich, Founder, Mercata, on Asset Management
How a conservative, relationship-driven industry is actually adopting AI, and where the real opportunity sits.
Silvio D’Addario, Founder, BloomLex, on Legal
Why legal may change faster than anyone expects, and what that means for firms, talent, and clients.
Calvin Benchimol, Founder, Crewscope, on Construction
What years of AI implementation on job sites have taught him, and how the industry is shifting.
You’ll leave with
A ground-level view of how AI adoption really happens in regulated, traditional industries, beyond the headlines
What surprised the operators: where adoption was faster, slower, or different than expected
A sharper lens on where durable value is being built across three industries most investors underweight
Good conversation with a small group of investors worth knowing
The format
Twenty seats. Three fireside conversations led by FutureSight, followed by dinner and open discussion. No decks, no pitches.
Who it’s for
Early-stage investors who prefer a good table to a crowded room. Attendance is by invitation, and requests are reviewed by the FutureSight team.
