DesignSummit:
The Business of AI XX

DesignSummit: The Business of AI XX, is a powerful collaborative business incubator for women business owners and entrepreneurs to co-create what’s possible within the emerging AI-transformation of business.

We support the need for a more creative and community-based approach to integrating AI into business operations at scale.

AI XX focuses on the various considerations and challenges such as:

  • The ethical, responsible and effective integration of AI in business operations

  • How to define, understand and overcome challenges related to integrating AI, such as AI’s learning curve; inconsistent results, and choosing from the seemingly unlimited AI options 

  • How to integrate and implement AI into a business’s operations, including how to create privacy and safety 

  • How to deal with our fears around AI, and measuring the success of its use

"The greatest wealth transfer is under way and women are not just participants, they are decision-makers, founders, investors and stewards of capital."

- Ida Liu, HSBC CEO, 2025

On April 16, 2026, join your business owner and entrepreneur peers, and immerse yourself in a powerful creative incubator to collaborate on the creation of actionable solutions to successfully integrate and use AI to attain economies of scale to grow your business.

DesignSummit: How It Works

DesignSummit is a highly curated process intentionally designed to facilitate solution creation and activation to most complex challenges.

Each DesignSummit is a carefully curated blend of creativity, precision facilitation, cutting-edge technology, and deep human connection. 


Participants actively engage to co-create real-world actionable and implementable solutions constituted by the “Group Genius” that emerges with each participant’s input and commitment, serving to catalyze possibility into actuality, in targeted areas.

It’s the difference between sharing ideas, and curating the by-design implementation of these ideas in the real world, and in your businesses, with measurable effect. 

DesignSummit is constituted by a 3-day live, immersive, in-person event, punctuated by quarterly DesignLabs.

DesignLabs are single day virtual events meant to activate, augment and deepen the work of DesignSummit.

Both to prepare for a DesignSummit and to ensure continuity of DesignSummit work implementation occurs in your respective business or organization.

What Is A DesignSummit?

DesignSummits explore, design, test, and rigorously evaluate new possibilities and future solutions previously unconsidered.

Participants refine the widest set of possible solutions into practical, tangible models that can be acted on.

Participants reach solutions and are decisive in ways that meet or exceed the original DesignSummit objectives.

For this reason participants of each DesignSummit must reflect the broadest possible representation of key stakeholders around the chosen theme/Worthy Problem.

Since DesignSummits are where participants roll up their sleeves and work together to create actionable solutions, and to ensure the created solution is as whole and complete as possible, viewpoints from all relevant stakeholders need to be considered and integrated into the created solution to ensure comprehensiveness.


Women-led AI companies drove 24.3% of U.S. VC exits and generated 2.5× more revenue per dollar raised than all-male teams.

DesignLab:
Continuity for Measurable Impact

DesignLab is where the preparatory and implementation (the real work) begins.

The transformative energy of DesignSummits evolves through our DesignLab Continuity Model. Quarterly virtual DesignLab sessions maintain momentum, accountability, and continuous improvement, ensuring solutions generated at each summit translate into real-world impact.

DesignLab enables participants from the DesignSummit:

  • stays connected

  • prepare for the upcoming DesignSummit

  • refine and reify their agreed-to action plans around the co-created solutions from the DesignSummit

  • maintain accountability that action is indeed occurring on the “problem” that the DesignSummit participants addressed

DesignLab sessions also offer:

  • Consistent refinement and re-alignment to evolving global dynamics.

  • Engagement opportunities for new participants to connect with conference ideas year-round.

  • Experiential touchpoints, building lasting connections and continuously enriching your community’s experiences.
