Where AI Leaders Build What’s Next
Accelerate Your AI Strategy with Trusted, Cross-Functional Peers
When you’re charting new territory, the right peers make all the difference. Samudra AIX brings together AI leaders across functions — from CIOs and Chief AI Officers to product, strategy, and data leaders — to share what’s working now and explore what’s next.
This isn’t another passive network. It’s an active circle of enterprise executives, grounded in practical insight, open dialogue, and shared ambition. As co-leader of this community, I help guide our sessions and ensure that every meeting delivers value you can use immediately.
Why The Community Works: The Three Dimensions of Impact
The Samudra AI Innovation Exchange is designed around the needs of leaders responsible for enterprise-scale AI transformation. Our members consistently highlight three things they value most:
Farsight
See where the puck is going. Through research, ecosystem-wide discussions, and diverse perspectives, Samudra helps you anticipate how AI will shape your business — and your industry — in the months and years ahead.
Near-Sight
Solve what’s urgent. Members share practical solutions and lessons from the frontlines of AI deployment — from reskilling teams to aligning with the board. Each conversation is designed to deliver insights you can apply now.
Relationships
Expand your circle. Samudra connects leaders who rarely sit at the same table — technologists, strategists, creatives, and operators — in a high-trust space. These relationships often spark ideas and collaborations that wouldn’t happen anywhere else.
Connect with people who get it. Build trusted relationships with executives from across industries — technologists, strategists, creatives, and board members — all committed to using AI for impact.
Why Samudra AIX is Different
- AI-Only Focus: Unlike general executive groups, this is exclusively for leaders building with AI now.
- Cross-Functional by Design: Strategy meets engineering, product meets policy — we connect the silos others don’t.
- Led by Peers, Not Vendors: No pitches. No panels. Just candid, high-trust exchange among equals.
- Co-Led by Charlene Li: I’m in every meeting and conversation, sharing insights from my research, clients, and writing — and learning alongside you.
How it Works
- Virtual Sessions: 90-minute calls, six times a year, focused on timely, member-chosen topics.
- Ecosystem Events: Multi-day gatherings across the Samudra network (two per year).
- Executive Briefings: Custom updates for you and your leadership teams.
- Research & Reports: Twice-yearly deep dives into systemic AI challenges and opportunities.
Who It’s For
We’re looking for senior executives with responsibility for AI strategy, development, or governance — including:
- Chief AI Officers
- CIOs / CTOs / CDOs
- of Innovation, Strategy, or Data
- Board members focused on AI oversight
- Cross-functional leaders championing AI transformation
Membership is by invitation only. We prioritize diversity of thought, function, and industry.
