About event

The Global Investment Guide: "Truth Behind ROI in AI Start-Ups" gathering will take place on November 12th, 2026, meeting with an elite circle of over 30 venture capitalists, private equity partners, angels and family office principals focused on the financial realities of the artificial intelligence boom.

 

This private video call gathering offers a focused environment for investors to look past the hype and analyze the actual drivers of profitability in AI led ventures. From assessing the "moat" of proprietary datasets to understanding the long term infrastructure costs of scaling models, participants will discuss how to identify the startups that are built to deliver real returns and how to structure deals that protect investor interests in a fast moving market.

 

Participants will:

 

  • Explore the shift in capital toward verticalized AI and the hardware software convergence
  • Discuss practical frameworks for measuring ROI, unit economics, and "time to value" for enterprise AI solutions
  • Share views on market timing, exit strategies, and how to spot sustainable competitive advantages in a crowded field
  • Engage in one to one meetings with peers to find common ground and explore potential investment opportunities

 

The Agenda:

 

  • Investors Introductions & Roundtable Discussion: A group conversation focused on the topic: "The ROI Reality Check: What are the biggest hurdles for AI startup profitability in late 2026?". Insights into global innovation signals and the evolving demand of the institutional landscape.
  • A few selected investment opportunities.
