The Future of AI with Yan Zhang

​Join Novabook for an exclusive fireside chat with Yan Zhang - AI operator & mentor, ex-COO at PolyAI, and venture scout at Point72 Ventures.

​Yan’s career spans finance, entrepreneurship, operations, and AI investment, giving him a unique perspective on both building and backing AI startups. As a founder of multiple consumer businesses in China, Yan understands firsthand the challenges of scaling a startup. His experience at PolyAI, where he helped grow one of the UK’s leading AI companies, and now at Point72 Ventures, where he scouts emerging AI technologies, gives Yan a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed in this space.

​Alongside moderator Stephen Wilks, the evening will explore the future of AI - where the biggest opportunities lie, how AI startups can position themselves for success, and what investors are looking for in this rapidly evolving landscape.
