AI Strategy & Leadership · Value AI Institute

Make AI matter.

Most organizations are experimenting with AI: scattered pilots and tools, with no clear purpose. We help you turn that into lasting value, with a focused strategy and the leadership to deliver it.

AI Strategy & Leadership, in brief.

Who we are, how we help and why leaders work with us, in about 90 seconds.

Why the Value AI Institute.

Four things make the difference, whether you are setting your strategy or putting it into action.

01

Neutrality

We are not tied to any technology vendor, so our recommendations serve your interests only.

02

Experienced practitioners

Senior practitioners who have led technology, go-to-market and delivery at global scale, and know what it takes to turn plans into results.

03

Time to value

We focus on what can deliver results quickly, without losing sight of the long-term vision.

04

A wider network

Access to a global network of leaders, convened every year in Davos during the World Economic Forum and in New York during UNGA and Climate Week.

AI creates lasting value when it is led like any other strategic priority: with focus, clear ownership and trust built in from the start.

Leadership, not just technology

AI changes how you compete and work, so it belongs on the leadership agenda.

Focus over more pilots

A few prioritized use cases, delivered well, create more value than many experiments.

Trust as part of the business case

Governance and responsible AI make adoption faster, not slower.

How we help.

Two ways to move from experimentation to lasting value: a focused strategy, and the leadership to deliver it. Use either on its own, or combine them in the order that suits you.

Climbers ascending a pale blue mountain under a full moon

More than a consultancy.

The Value AI Institute is an independent institute with a simple purpose: AI that matters for business and society.

Every year, we convene leaders through The Art of Business: in Davos during the World Economic Forum, and in New York during UNGA and Climate Week.

Every engagement is delivered by our core team and specialist practitioners, and draws on the perspectives of our Chairs and Advisory Board.

Client voice

“The Value AI Institute did an excellent assessment of our AI use, needs and potential, and supported us in the first steps of implementation. They were super knowledgeable, tuned in and kind. It was a booster for the organization.”

Katja Iversen, CEO, Museum for the United Nations – UN Live

“I was highly impressed by the quality of delivery and the speed with which meaningful outcomes were achieved, and with minimal disruption to our key stakeholders. The team successfully connected AI value creation across both our internal operations and our growth initiatives.”

Daniele Di Croce, CEO, REALTECH AG

Questions, answered.

Which offering is right for us?

If you need a clear, prioritized AI direction, start with the AI Strategy Service. If you need someone to lead and deliver AI across your organization, the Chief AI Officer service is the better fit. Many clients use both. The consultation is the best place to decide.

Can we start with the Chief AI Officer service?

Yes. If you already have a strategy, the CAIO builds on it. If not, the AI Strategy Service can run as part of the CAIO engagement.

How are the offerings priced?

The AI Strategy Service is delivered for a fixed fee. The Chief AI Officer service is a monthly retainer, based on the engagement option and time commitment agreed with you.

How is our information protected?

All information is handled within our secure Microsoft 365 environment and treated as confidential. We have data processing agreements in place with the tool providers we use, and our full Privacy and Data Security Policy forms part of the engagement agreement. Read our website privacy notice.

Which languages do you work in?

We deliver in English, which keeps engagements efficient and cost-effective. Final presentations and videos can also be produced in other languages on request.
