Originally organized by AI Salon (www.AiSalon.ai). AI Salon is a global community bringing together AI founders and builders, investors, operators and ecosystem partners to connect, learn and collaborate. AI Salon Singapore returns on 21 October for another evening of fresh perspectives, candid conversations and meaningful connections. This edition brings together Vinod Mahbobani from KFC / Yum! Brands and Yum Asia, Yongcheng Ong from Insignia Ventures Partners, and Denise Ang from HTX, with Durwin Ho moderating. Together, they bring distinct perspectives from global business, venture capital and public-sector technology. What makes this mix valuable is the opportunity to hear how people with different responsibilities approach the same questions. What catches an investor’s attention? What matters to a global organisation? How does a public-sector technology leader think about opportunities, implementation and trust? We’ll draw on our speakers’ journeys, lessons and experiences, while leaving room to explore the developments in AI that matter most when we meet. Expect thoughtful questions, lively exchanges and opportunities to bring your own perspective into the conversation. At its heart, AI Salon is about the people. Building a company or navigating new technology is easier when you can learn from those who have been there, exchange ideas with peers and meet people who challenge your thinking. Our aim is to create a welcoming space for those connections, helping Singapore’s AI community learn, grow and support one another. Come with questions, share what you’re working on and leave with new ideas and people to follow up with. More details on the speakers and programme will be announced soon. What We Will Explore How AI founders can find genuine commercial traction amid the hype What investors look for when evaluating AI startups How companies are moving from AI experimentation to deployment The evolving opportunities around AI agents and automation What differentiates defensible AI companies from thin product wrappers Tactical lessons for founders building the next generation of AI startups Singapore’s role as a hub for AI talent, capital and company building Who Should Attend AI founders and startup teams Engineers, researchers and product builders Venture capital investors and angel investors Corporate innovation and technology leaders Operators exploring practical AI adoption … Venue: Singapore, SG.
