The antidote to epic stories about AI transformation.
The discourse about AI transformation is too big, vague, and theoretical. We want to steer the discourse on AI transformation in a new direction. We want to solve small.
Small can...
be bottom-up, not top-down.
be implemented today, not in 6 months.
fail.
inspire action, not hot takes.
lead to big thinking.
change culture.
The ON_Discourse Summit is designed to distill epic stories about AI transformation into practical strategies for every role in the C-Suite. Unlike typical AI conferences, this event is cross-functional, hands-on, and focused on "small transformations" that drive real impact.
