Exited Founders and Using AI to Ideate and Identify the Next Great Company

In conjunction with Harvard Business School Club of New York, Pillsbury will convene a panel to explore what experienced founders know after a successful exit that changes how they approach opportunity identification, company creation and scaling—and why the AI era may disproportionately reward speed, experimentation and unconventional insight. From AI-powered market discovery to automated product development and go-to-market execution, our panelists will examine how repeat founders are reimagining the company-building process and creating businesses designed for an AI-first world.

Highlights:

• AI-native strategies for idea generation, market research and product validation
• Lessons learned from scaling and exiting prior companies—and how those lessons shape the next venture
• The changing economics of company-building with AI-driven automation
• How investors assess defensibility in AI-enabled businesses and what differentiates enduring AI-native companies
• Practical tools and workflows founders are using today to accelerate building, testing and scaling new ventures

6:00 pm to 6:30 pm: Registration and Reception
6:30 pm to 7:30 pm: Panel Discussion with Q&A
