From Zero to One in Applied AI

​Everyone is building “AI-powered” something.

​
Very few are getting from prototype to production - or from idea to real distribution.

​Join Venture Forward Capital and Hubble for a raw session on what it actually takes to build and scale applied AI startups in the current founder and investor environment.

​Our expert panel:

​Ohad Tzur - GP at Venture Forward Capital

​Raman Rai - AI Product Manager & ML at PwC

​Ideja Bajra - Founder at Edvance AI

​We’ll cover:

• ​What zero-to-one really looks like in applied AI (and where most teams stall)

• ​How to move from pilot to production with enterprise and real customers

• ​The hidden bottlenecks between PoC and revenue

• ​Distribution and go-to-market strategies that work in today’s funding climate

• ​What investors are actually underwriting in early-stage AI right now

​Moderated by Sasha Cayward, Chief Community Officer at Hubble

​Expect candid operator stories, investor perspective, and practical frameworks you can apply immediately.

​This is not an AI hype panel.

​It’s a working session on execution, distribution, and building companies that survive contact with reality.

​Ideal for repeat founders, AI builders, operators scaling technical products, and investors looking for signal in a very noisy market.
