Breaking Through the Blood-Brain Barrier

💡 AI meets reality: From AI Potential to Real-World Impact There’s no shortage of conversation about what AI could change. We’re more interested in what happens when you actually try to make it work. About the event: AI's potential is no longer in question — what separates the leaders from the laggards is execution in the real world. Proxify Talks brings together CTOs, senior engineering leaders, and technical executives for an evening of candid keynotes, sharp panel discussions, and honest conversation about what it takes to put AI to work inside real organizations - beyond the hype, beyond the demos, and past the current technological chaos. Expect depth over buzzwords: our speakers choose their own angle on the theme, so you'll hear a genuine range of perspectives on implementation, not a repeated pitch deck.

The climate crisis is accelerating. So are AI capabilities. What becomes possible when these two realities meet? An evening to explore how AI can help communities prepare for and adapt to a changing climate, bringing together climate experts, technologists, innovators and organizations working on the frontlines of climate change. Through powerful climate storytelling, leading research and practical examples from around the world, we will look at where AI can make a real difference, from understanding risks earlier to helping communities protect lives, livelihoods and ecosystems. The stage program will bring together perspectives from climate science, AI research and innovators applying technology in practice. You will also have the opportunity to meet seven international organizations developing AI solutions for communities already facing the effects of climate change. Expect to be surprised by what AI is already making possible, and to leave more hopeful about what comes next. You’ll hear from Alexandre Antonelli — Executive Director of Science at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew Dr. Heïdi Sevestre — Glaciologist, polar explorer and climate communicator Victor Galaz — Associate Professor of Political Science, Stockholm Resilience Centre and Stockholm University Olof Mogren, PhD — Co-Founder, Climate AI Nordics, and Research Director, Deep Learning, RISE Dr. David Dao, Co-founder & Chief Scientist, GainForest Kenneth Kou, Head of Venture Lab, Prosper Global Ventures Anna Lerner-Nesbitt — Founder and CEO, Climate Collective Salah Said — Director of Sustainability, Klarna More speakers and participating organizations will be announced.
