Mercedes-Benz.io x TechRun Stage present: Building AI-Native Companies

​Most companies use AI. Very few are built around it.

​On Wednesday, 4 November, Mercedes-Benz.io opens its Lisbon HQ for one evening on what that shift really takes: in the stack, in the product, and in how AI Native teams are led.

Short showcases, a sharp panel, your questions, then connection.

90 seats, shared with the Mercedes-Benz.io team. Free, guest list only.

ON TOPIC

​Organisation
What separates a company that uses AI from one that is truly AI-native? Which assumptions in the traditional operating model no longer hold?

​Leadership
How do you lead a transformation when you can’t honestly say what the organisation will need in two or three years? What should leaders reinvent, not just improve?

​Technology + Product
When AI can write the code and generate the customer experience, what do engineers and product teams still own?

​Got a sharper question? We are curious to hear from you. The event registration asks for it, and the best ones open the Q&A.
