AI beyond the BUZZ
AI is no longer a feature. It’s becoming the foundation.
In a post-ChatGPT world, every SaaS company talks about AI.
But the real challenge lies with those who were already successful before this new wave, the products that now need to evolve their architecture, strategy, and leadership to stay ahead in the agentic era.
This curated gathering in New York City brings together CTOs, VPs of Engineering, Product Leaders, founders, and investors to explore how established SaaS companies are transforming their core systems and decision-making models through agentic intelligence.
Who should attend?
SaaS leaders ready to move past AI marketing speak: CTOs and engineering VPs building autonomous systems, product leaders rethinking their roadmaps for an AI-first world, and founders transforming their companies from the ground up.
Also, for forward-thinking business leaders and investors who want to understand the real technical and strategic shifts happening beneath the hype.
Through an honest and open panel conversation, our speakers will explore:
What agentic AI really is, and how it goes beyond rules-based automation to goal-driven systems.
Real-world challenges and lessons in embedding agentic AI into SaaS products and organizations.
How trust, culture, and purpose shape AI adoption and responsible leadership.
Insights, predictions, and philosophies for leading AI-driven innovation in the years ahead.
After the discussion, we’ll open the floor for a curated networking session, a moment to share experiences, exchange insights, and explore collaborations that could redefine leadership and innovation in the era of AI.
