The Future of Work Prediction Market - 2025 Post-Mortem + What Actually Scales Next
About the Event
The Future of Work Prediction Market is a closed-room conversation for people who build products that actively reshape how work is done.
2025 forced many teams to confront a gap between what was technically possible and what actually survived inside real organizations. This event is a space to unpack that gap together.
We’re here to talk openly about:
what broke in 2025
what barely worked
what teams had to rethink once products hit real users and real constraints
what those lessons already tell us about what will (and won’t) scale next
Audience
Founders and builders of future-of-work products (AI agents, robotics, avatars, hybrid systems), product leaders growing these products and deeply specialized technical practitioners working hands-on with them.
How the Conversation Works
We’ll start with a moderated panel discussion to frame the key failures and patterns that emerged in 2025. The second half is an open, participatory discussion, where founders, product leaders and technical specialists can challenge assumptions and build on each other’s insights.
What We’ll Touch On
Rather than a fixed agenda, the conversation will explore:
why many agent-, robot-, and avatar-based products stalled in production
where system design and organizational reality mattered more than model capability
which automation bets quietly got rolled back
what separates products that demo well from products that teams actually rely on
which 2025 failure patterns already point to the next set of non-obvious risks
Speakers
Dan Krieger
Co-Founder @ Raisi. Focuses on product signal, adoption dynamics and why seemingly strong products fail to propagate inside organizations.
Nikita Ivanov
AI executive and systems architect with deep experience in agentic systems, LLMOps and enterprise AI. Focuses on production architectures and real-world deployment failures.
Format & Atmosphere
Small, curated group
Panel discussion followed by open conversation
No stage performances or formal demos
Emphasis on warmth, trust and honest exchange
This is a room where it’s okay to say “this didn’t work”. We truly believe this is where the value comes from.
Location: Frontier Tower, 16th floor - 995 Market St, San Francisco, CA 94103.
