Invite & approval only: CIOs, SVPs, and senior executives at companies with $50M+ in funding/revenue or 100+ employees.

The CIOs who've actually shipped enterprise AI are comparing notes. This is the dinner where it's happening.

Every CIO has sat through the briefings. The pilots are running. The pressure is mounting. But the honest conversations: what's actually deployed, what quietly failed, and what you'd do differently, aren't happening in the rooms you're being invited to.

This private, off-the-record dinner brings together 8-10 CIOs and senior practitioners shaping enterprise AI to hear directly from one another, and discuss what it's like to:

  • Run live agentic AI deployments, not pilots

  • Navigate board pressure with real frameworks, not theory

  • Make build vs. buy vs. partner calls right now

This dinner is for people who have taken rare steps in enterprise; no panels, no pitches, just high-trust conversation in a private dining room in Manhattan. There will be individually assigned seating and ample time to connect before and after dinner.

What Happened Last Week?

We hosted our Senior Executives Breakfast in NYC, co-hosted with the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), featuring Brenda Harvey (Former Chairman & CEO, IBM APAC) and Shi-Hui Ang (GIC, $900B+ AUM). Together with a curated group of founders, operators, and investors, we got insights on what it really takes to scale globally — from navigating Southeast Asia’s fragmented markets, to the importance of local context over global playbooks, to why capital discipline is critical when expanding across regions.

A huge thank you to Brenda and Shi Hui for the thoughtful sharing, Valerie Chua and Sian Nee Ho from EDB for co-hosting, and to all our attendees for the high-quality conversations that made the morning so special!

Much love,
