Jeff Lu, CEO, Akool
I'll show you how we trained our avatar algorithms from scratch across 4 generations. I collected and labeled our own 4K data and ran 3 to 6 month development cycles per model to get to studio quality. Along the way I developed a clear point of view on when to build our own model vs. when to partner with OpenAI, Anthropic, others: I build where I can own the quality and the pricing power, like avatars and face swap, and I partner where the field moves too fast to win on my own, like text-to-video and AI music. In this workshop I'll walk through how I decide what to build proprietary versus what to buy, and how to actually train models that justify premium pricing in a market racing to zero.

Alex Jekowsky, CEO, Cents
Cents hit $60M ARR with 99% gross retention by going deeper, not wider — selling POS, custom payment hardware, and delivery integrations into the same laundromats instead of racing to add rooftops. Alex breaks down how he thinks about net dollar retention over location growth, why “more customers” is often the lazy path, and how attachment rates in a tight vertical compound into a durable business. You’ll leave with a framework for finding the next product your existing customers will actually pay for.

Benjamin Douablin, CEO, FullEnrich
How FullEnrich built our MCP server and helped customers understand how to use it to drive ACV expansion.

Aly Hussaini, CEO, Eventeny
How to help your customers make more money, then pivot your pricing model to a % of GMV instead of seat-based pricing.

Sam Riemer, CEO, Zoek
We reached $10M in revenue on the back of professional services, but growth is accelerating as we help SMBs adopt AI faster. Here’s how to launch a mini agency playbook inside your company.

Mark Hoadley, CEO, HaulerHero
See how I took learnings from Service Titan to build a $5m+ vertical software company serving Waste and Hauling SMBs.

Originating in Ireland, croquet is a storied pastime loved for its relaxed, social nature.
