VIP Founders Dinner

Join an Intimate Discussion on How Founders Are Scaling With AI Inside the Business

We are convening a select group of 20 founders, technical operators, and builder-minded executives for a private dinner in Seattle on March 18th. This is a closed-door conversation for the people actually wiring AI into the company itself — not just into the product.

The focus of the evening is simple: how high-growth teams are using AI to create real business leverage. That includes automation that drives revenue and efficiency, agentic systems that help manage teams and workflows, and the growing stack of internal AI tools reshaping how companies operate day to day. We want practical notes from the field: what is saving time, what is changing org design, what is breaking, and what is actually compounding. KBF Advisory and Perkins Coie join the room with a rare vantage point across high-growth companies navigating finance, operations, and scale in the AI era.

This is a moderated, off-the-record roundtable built for candor. No decks. No vague AI strategy talk. Just a sharp room of founders and operators comparing how they are putting these systems to work inside the business.

What to Expect

This is a high-signal room of practitioners. We skip the futurist talk and get concrete about how AI is changing the way companies are built, managed, and scaled.

• Founder-First Discussion: A room designed for founders and senior operators actively integrating AI into internal workflows, decision-making, and execution.
• Practical Depth: Expect real examples around automation, internal tooling, team leverage, and where agentic systems are already creating measurable outcomes.
• Roundtable Dialogue: A single, moderated conversation where every guest brings lessons, edge cases, and live questions from their own business.
• No Pitches: This is not a sales environment. It is a curated discussion for people sharing what is actually working under the hood.

Discussion Themes

We invite guests to bring specific challenges, systems, and lessons from inside their companies. Themes will include:

• AI for Business Outcomes: How teams are using automation and AI-native workflows to drive revenue, reduce overhead, increase speed, and unlock new operating leverage.
• Managing Teams With Agents: Where agentic and autonomous systems are starting to augment management, coordination, planning, QA, and internal execution.
• AI Inside the Company: The internal tool stack founders are building and adopting across engineering, ops, finance, customer workflows, and knowledge management.
• The Software Factory Shift: What it looks like when AI changes how software gets built internally — and how engineering organizations evolve when output per person starts to compound.
• Operational Reality: Where these systems still break down, what founders do not trust yet, and what has to be true before autonomy can scale further across the business.
