Michelin Edition: Private CIO & Senior Executives Dinner in NYC
Wed, Apr 15, 06:30 PM - 08:30 PM (EDT)
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 March Private Founders Dinner in NYC ft. Merritt Hummer, Partner at Bain Capital Ventures (~$9B AUM). Merritt unpacked what it really takes to raise in today's market, from crafting a compelling AI narrative for investors, to seeking strategic partnership (not just capital) from your backers, to the ruthless prioritization required to keep up with an increasingly chaotic founder schedule.
A huge thank you to Merritt for the candid sharing, Bo Ren from Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) for the awesome moderating, our attendees for the amazing conversations, as well as Justworks, SVB, Nebius, and Manifest Law for making this dinner possible!
