Turn curiosity into capability
In September we are not going to talk about AI. We are going to build with it. Bring the problems that slow your team down; we will shortlist them together, then turn the sharpest into something that runs.
How it works
Submit as many problems as you can now. Nothing is too small or too big at this stage.
Together, we shortlist and prioritise the ones with the most impact.
We build the top ones live with you at the September town hall.
The point is not a demo
Most AI sessions end with a slide and a good feeling. This one ends with something that works. You bring the friction that quietly costs your team hours every week. Together we turn it into a working system, measure what it saves, and make sure the know-how stays in the room.
Experimentation is the start. Measurable business impact is the goal. Lasting capability is what we leave behind.
Not bolt-ons. Not theory.
Working systems, real skills, and a culture built to inspire.
Working systems
Something that runs on Monday, not a prototype that dies on Friday.
Real skills
Your team leaves able to build the next one, without waiting on us.
A culture that sustains
Curiosity that outlives the session and spreads across the JV.
The problems worth building
You do not need an AI idea. You need a real problem, and the clearest way to describe it is as a workflow: the steps you run by hand today. The strongest candidates for the session, the ones we can prototype with you and that move a real number, share four things.
It is a workflow, not a one-off
Several steps you run by hand today: gather, check, analyse, draft, decide. The more steps involved, the more there is for AI to take on.
It runs on information you can bring
Documents, spreadsheets, exports, emails, notes. If you can show it to a colleague, you can show it to Claude and build around it in the room.
It repeats, and it moves a number
You do it often, and doing it better saves real hours, speeds a decision, or cuts errors. That is where the impact is measurable.
You can judge the output
You know what good looks like, so we can build it and pressure-test it together, live, before you leave.
What we can build together
Advanced workflows, right-sized
- A weekly buy-review assistant that reads sell-through, flags slow movers, and drafts reorder and markdown calls with the reasoning.
- A store-visit workflow that turns field notes and photos into a structured merchandising and compliance report.
- A clienteling assistant that drafts personalised VIP outreach from purchase history and upcoming launches.
- A contract triage that reads supplier or lease PDFs, extracts the key terms, flags risks, and drafts a negotiation brief.
- A feedback engine that classifies reviews across channels, surfaces the week's themes, and drafts responses.
Bigger than one session
- Forecasting next season's bestsellers from scratch.
- A live, always-on integration into your ERP or POS.
- A full customer data platform.
- Anything that only works once it is wired into a locked-down system.
- "Automate the whole department."
Aim high. If your best idea sits on the right, submit it anyway. Big or small, we want to hear it, and we will shortlist and prioritise everything together.
Help us find the impact
A few quick questions follow your problem on the form. They are how we decide what to build first, so answer them honestly.
Rate the real pain, not the impressive-sounding one. A small daily drag can beat a rare big one.
Yours alone, your team's, or shared across several teams. Shared problems are gold: build once, benefit many.
Daily, weekly, monthly, or ad hoc. The more it repeats, the more time you win back.
Bring us the problems worth building
Submit as many as you can, each framed as the workflow you run by hand today, plus a few quick tags. Nothing is too small or too big at this stage.
