The other side: what I made, ran, wrote or said out loud. Written by hand, not gathered from AI.

Opening keynote at Signal, Geneva
Level-setting a room of 100 LPs, family offices, VCs and founders on what agentic AI actually is, before two days of them deciding what to do about it.

AI Founder Retreats
Four days in an Alpine chalet with a small group of AI founders. Mentoring, coaching, mountains, and the board you cannot afford.

Under the Hood of Agentic AI: an executive primer
A working lunch for INSEAD alumni on what agentic AI actually is, shown live from the real coding environment. Twenty minutes of talk, seventy-five minutes of questions.

My second brain: agents on a vault
One plain-markdown vault, a fleet of Claude agents working across it, and every meeting, email, task and idea flowing through the same place. Demoed live at INSEAD.

What it takes to scale AI from promising demo to something a society-critical organisation can actually run on, from the Critical Use Cases for Society track at Campus Biotech.
