The Next Wave of AI Investment Is in How Businesses Run
About this session
Silicon Valley and the global AI ecosystem have built remarkable models, infrastructure, and tools. Enterprises are adopting them quickly, yet fundamentally redesigning how businesses operate is a much bigger opportunity. The next wave of AI investment will be in companies that reinvent how products are built, people and intelligent systems work together, and businesses operate across digital and physical industries.
For investors, the question is where lasting value will be created and who can recognize these opportunities early. This talk explores why experienced technology and business operators have a unique advantage in identifying and backing the next generation of AI-native companies, and how early-stage investors can participate without competing in the capital-intensive frontier model race.
