AI is moving fast, and it keeps speeding up.
Keeping up with AI progress and what it means for your business can be overwhelming, even for those of us who spend 16 hours a day studying it. This afternoon sorts what matters from what was just announced loudly.
Your advantage is speed. Decide on Monday, have it running by Friday.

Clarity on what's real
Which AI claims hold up, which are noise, and where your industry sits this quarter.
A line of sight on what's next
What lands next quarter, what's further out than the marketing says, and what to plan around before January.
The room
Entrepreneurs and business owners running companies like yours, working on the same problem. Worth the afternoon on its own.

Mike Schwarz
CEO, MyZone AI
Mike has been automating small businesses since 2000 and has spent the last four years on the road talking to owners about AI, hosting close to 300 workshops along the way. He built the MyZone Ai1 agent platform and advises founders on directing AI agents. By his own account, he hasn't written a line of code in months.

"The best talk from the whole conference."
Owners who've been in the room with Mike before:
"I recently saw Mike speak at the 2024 EO One Canada Conference in Calgary, and wow. I think it was the best talk from the whole conference!"
"Mike Schwarz sounds a stark warning for all SME business owners. Get on the AI wave, NOW, or get buried in its wake."
"Mike & Andrej definitely woke our company up to the risks and opportunities around AI, and helped to get some very important conversations started."
"We're leading and creating a world without waste. It requires exponential thinking from exponential thinkers, and Mike is just that."
