Jones to talk about what AI adoption actually looks like inside real companies, not on Twitter. We get into why most rollouts stall even after a company has already paid for the tools, why people who struggle to sell AI usually have a storytelling problem instead, and why the non-technical side of the C-suite ends up being the real bottleneck. If you have been trying to get AI working at your company, or trying to sell it to one, this one is for you.

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
