Met so many amazing people, and learnt so much from all the incredibly smart people that I was able to connect with. The week far exceeded my expectations, and was for sure the best investment I could have made this year.

Matthew Ward
Attendee, 2026

The event was so beautifully curated. From food, to decoration, to people. Akil did really well with creating such a strong sense of inclusivity between all people attending the event.

I realised again how massive this AI opportunity is. And that I can be part of the transformation. I can live a different life by fully going for this opportunity and breaking free from the employee lifestyle.
