You can’t go anywhere today without hearing the term “artificial intelligence” - governments, industry, and startups are thinking through how to build, leverage and harness AI on a daily basis.

Ash has built a career building and investing in startups - he was an early and senior member of AngelList and since joining Zetta has been in generational AI-first companies like Canva, Invenia, and more.
