Breakfast at the Next Level | The AI Revolution
About this Event
What happens when decades of enterprise, retail, technology and operational experience collide with the rapid rise of AI?
Join us for an engaging and practical conversation with four experienced technology and business leaders as they explore how AI and technology are transforming the way organisations operate, compete, innovate and grow.
From enterprise technology and retail transformation to AI, software, entrepreneurship and business operations, our speakers bring decades of real-world experience — and importantly, perspectives grounded in actually building, running and transforming businesses.
