AI assistants are becoming yesterday’s advantage. The next competitive edge is building AI teams that can challenge, critique, and improve each other.

Join us for the Technology Executive Dinner in New York City on Wednesday, September 16th | 6:00 PM ET, featuring Altaz Bhanji, Chief Cloud Architect at Visa.

In “The Yin and Yang of AI: From AI Assistant to AI Team,” Altaz will explore how multi-agent AI is moving beyond one-way automation toward systems where specialized agents can create, test, critique, and secure each other’s work before human approval.

The conversation will unpack how this model can improve reliability, where these systems can fail, and how the same approach can extend beyond software into marketing, finance, law, and management.

🍽 Premium executive dining experience

Every AI roadmap eventually hits the same question from the board: what are we actually getting for this?

That's the question Tanweer Surve, Head of Cloud Center of Enablement & Solutions Engineering at PNC, tackled head-on at this month's TechTalk Tuesday with his ROAI Framework — a practical model for measuring AI's business value instead of just its adoption rate.

One number from his deck says it all: organizations report 98% technology deployed, but only 12% strategically integrated. That 86-point gap is where most AI investment quietly evaporates.

His framework broke it into five steps any team can run with:
1️⃣ Define objectives and metrics
2️⃣ Establish performance baselines
3️⃣ Implement and monitor
4️⃣ Analyze and report
5️⃣ Share insights

The rest of the lineup brought the receipts:
🔹 Andy Flynn (Dialpad) — turning AI hype into board-ready metrics
🔹 Michael Leworthy (Everpure) — thriving through market volatility
🔹 Anne Nielsen (Cobalt) — human-led, AI-powered offensive security

This was one of our most engaged sessions yet — thank you to everyone who showed up and stayed for the full hour.

Tanweer's back on October 6th for round two: "Shifting from AI Initiatives to AI-Powered Enterprise Models."
