BAG Ventures AI Convergence Series
The AI Convergence Series is an exclusive gathering that brings together a premier ecosystem of enterprise leaders, operators, investors, and founders. Following our successful 2025 events in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, we are bringing this event to Detroit to tackle one of the most pressing challenges in the industry: The Integration Paradox.
While corporations risk falling behind if they do not adopt frontier AI, many are currently stalled in "pilot purgatory"—investing in proofs-of-concept that fail to scale. Our Detroit session is designed to bridge this gap, moving beyond experimentation toward enterprise-wide scaling and immediate ROI.
We'll have networking opportunities and a panel discussion featuring perspectives from:
Mustafa Bal, Co-Founder and CEO of Nomadic
Ted Cannis, Former CEO of Ford Pro
Norm Marks, Global Vice President, Automotive Industry at NVIDIA
Andrew Colunga, VP, Product Management | Lending & AI Platform, Rocket Mortgage
If there is a colleague or peer in Detroit that you would like to invite to this event, please email [email protected] with the request. Space is limited, so we encourage you to RSVP early.
A big thank you to our co-hosts: NVIDIA, Detroit Venture Partners, Glidelane and local entrepreneur Sharon Madison.
