Building Value in the Age of AI

​Building Value in the Age of AI is a morning event for entrepreneurs and investors, exploring how AI is changing the way startups are built, funded, and scaled. As advanced tools become more accessible and development accelerates, new challenges emerge around early-stage funding, go-to-market strategy, intellectual property, and the very definition of value in an AI-driven world.
The event features leading voices from EY, Microsoft, Pearl Cohen, and top venture capital firms investing in the future of AI.
