Dr. Rodney Brooks, a founder and CTO of Robust.AI to deliver EON 2024 keynote

As the pace of AI accelerates, EON 2024 will once again bring together thought leaders to explore the transformative power of applied AI. Scheduled for September 30–October 1 at the Alila Marea Beach Resort and themed AI@Work, this invite-only event promises unscripted discussions and insightful panels.

This year, Dr. Rodney Brooks, founder and CTO of Robust.AI and a legendary figure in robotics and AI, will headline EON 2024, delivering a keynote on how AI will usher in a new era of human-machine interaction.

“EON is one of the only events for AI leaders where work gets done: leaders, founders, investors and academics put their heads together to come up with real solutions for deploying AI across the enterprise – not tomorrow, but today,” said Brooks. “I’m honored to deliver the keynote address at EON and can’t wait to have many engaging conversations about the near-term opportunities of AI@Work.”

Brooks is one of several AI luminaries set to speak at EON 2024. The final lineup of speakers will be announced in the coming weeks. Past EON speakers have included leaders from Amazon, Disney, Toyota, Sony, JPMorgan Chase, Stanford University, and Carnegie Mellon University.

Building the program for EON 2024 is an Advisory Board composed of AI experts and investors with practical experience scaling AI across diverse industries. This year’s advisory board members include:

• Dr. Henrik Christensen, professor of computer science at UCSD and co-founder of Robust.AI
• Dr. Adrien Gaidon, partner at Calibrate Ventures and professor at Stanford University
• Krisztina “Z” Holly, operating partner at Good Growth Capital
• Dr. Zornitsa Kozareva, co-founder and CTO of SliceX AI
• Jenny Lawton, founder and general partner at Old School Venture
• Om Malik, partner emeritus at True Ventures
• Dr. Paolo Pirjanian, founder and CEO of Embodied

EON was founded by Jason Schoettler and Kevin Dunlap, co-founders and managing partners of Calibrate Ventures, an early-stage venture capital firm that partners with deep-tech founders.

“EON has fast become the event for the most visionary leaders in AI to discuss the opportunities and challenges to deploying applied AI at scale,” said Schoettler. “At EON, the conversations are always engaging and productive, going long into the evening, and everyone walks away with real plans to put AI to work.”

Sold out the last two years, EON 2024 is expected to book up quickly. Request an invitation to attend or inquire about sponsorship opportunities.
