Love Conquers Fear: Humanity, AI, and the Age of Abundance

​Three builders. One thesis. A new vision for business.

​Join us in Houston for the launch of Love Conquers Fear: Humanity, AI, and the Age of Abundance for All, the new book by entrepreneur and investor Brett A. Hurt.

​This evening brings together three organizations working toward a shared vision: an economy where commerce and capital work best when built on trust, transparency, and human purpose.

​Through a fireside conversation, we’ll explore how AI can amplify human potential, how financial infrastructure can serve people more transparently, and how purpose-driven companies can help shape a more abundant future.

​Featuring

​Brett A. Hurt | Author and Entrepreneur
Co-founder of Coremetrics, Bazaarvoice, and data.world, Brett has spent three decades building technology companies. His new book explores how AI can become a force for human flourishing when guided by conscious capitalism.

​Blue Ocean Venture Labs | Host
Blue Ocean is building a data and orchestration OS for lending around the person, not just the loan. Its Verified Borrower Wallet gives borrowers greater control over their financial identity and enables more transparent, consent-driven lending.

​Lumino Technologies | Title Sponsor
Lumino is building a global, conscious-commerce platform that unifies payments, banking, and stablecoin rails, with a focus on stewardship, alignment, and purpose inside the financial system.

​Why This Conversation Matters

​Payments and lending are two halves of commerce. Blue Ocean is rethinking borrower empowerment, while Lumino is rethinking how money moves. Brett’s book connects these ideas through a broader vision of conscious capitalism and technology in service of humanity.

​Houston is the ideal setting for this conversation: a city where founders, investors, and business leaders are building the next generation of companies and financial infrastructure.

​Join us to hear the ideas, meet the people putting them into practice, and connect with others working toward a more human-centered economy.
