The Art of Business New York | Value AI Institute | UNGA Week
As UNGA and Climate Week NYC brings the city's most forward-thinking minds together, we're opening our doors for an afternoon of panel conversations and meaningful connection.
Together, we will continue the conversation on AI that matters for business and society. Our discussion will focus on building AI-native organizations that balance competitive advantage with meaningful societal impact, anchored in responsible AI development. We'll also turn to the arts, exploring the commonalities between art and AI as mirrors of human values and representation.
Event Agenda:
2:30 - 3:00 PM | Arrival & Welcome - Join our community of leaders, executives, and academics as they gather ahead of the day's conversations.
3:00 PM | Opening - An opening address from the Value AI Institute team framing the day ahead.
3:15 PM | The Narrative Shift in the Age of AI
AI is reshaping how narratives get built and believed, from brand storytelling to public-interest information at scale. This panel explores how communicators, brands, and institutions can build narratives people trust rather than adding to the noise.
3:45 PM | Changing the Business Playbook: Becoming AI Native
Most companies' AI strategy is still a patchwork of pilots rather than a coherent, market-shifting portfolio; that gap surfaces a deeper question of ownership. This panel explores what it takes to build a deliberate, AI-native organization, and how businesses are closing the accountability gap when no one clearly owns AI strategy.
4:15 PM | Art and AI as Mirrors of Ourselves
Art has always been a mirror for humanity, and AI is no different — what it reflects back says as much about human values and priorities as it does about the technology itself. This panel explores why holistic representation in the age of AI requires artists and cultural leaders at the table.
4:45 PM | The Art of Business Davos 2027 - A 15-minute interactive activation inviting attendees to help shape the narrative for The Art of Business Davos 2027, sharing the ideas and priorities that will define the next chapter of this conversation.
5:00 PM | Networking Reception - Close out the afternoon with fellow leaders, executives, and academics on a rooftop terrace in SoHo, New York City, with the Manhattan skyline as the backdrop.
Connect with fellow leaders of business, academia and arts & culture against the stunning backdrop of the Manhattan skyline.
