SUMMARY:Rehumanizing Leadership in the Age of AI: Why Your Story Is the Edge
DESCRIPTION:As AI accelerates faster than human adaptation\, many leaders feel the growing gap between optimization and meaning.

SUMMARY:ASVEM: A Living Ecosystem
DESCRIPTION:Spain — and especially the Valencian Region — has no shortage of musical talent\, but 99.8% of music businesses are small\, disconnected\, and lack the support to scale. Thousands of creative ideas remain stuck in rehearsal rooms due to the absence of training\, infrastructure\, and business tools. ASVEM INCUBA\, in partnership with the digital platform SETMUSIC\, is building the system the music industry has been missing: a sector-specific incubator embedded in a digital environment\, designed to turn artistic projects into sustainable companies. Through a flexible\, three-phase process — from idea validation to legal incorporation — we offer mentorship\, strategic guidance\, and visibility for projects ready to grow.\nWith over 70 ecosystem partners and €100\,000 in public support already secured\, we’re now looking for institutions\, companies\, philanthropists\, and mentors who want to co-create impact. Partners can contribute infrastructure\, expertise\, networks\, or creative capital — and mentors may receive equity in the projects they guide. ASVEM INCUBA inside SETMUSIC isn’t just a program — it’s a structural response to a creative sector ready to scale. Music doesn’t need more likes. It needs infrastructure. And you can help us build it.

SUMMARY:Why Sales-led SaaS Companies Keep Missing Forecasts (and How to Fix it)
DESCRIPTION:Your sales team shows you a €5M pipeline. You forecast €1M to the board. You close €400K. \nSound familiar? \nMost SaaS CEOs think this is a data problem. It’s not. It’s a culture problem – your sales team is rewarded for pipeline size\, not accuracy. \nI’ll reveal why companies achieving 3x better forecasting accuracy all did the same counterintuitive thing – and why one CEO’s “Defensible Deals” approach changed everything. \nYou’ll discover:\nThe hidden reason 72% of “committed” deals actually slip (hint: it’s not budget)\nWhy one company went from 0.75 to 5 demos per day by breaking this one rule\nThe three-number formula that predicts deal closure with 85% accuracy\nIf you’re tired of explaining missed forecasts to your board\, this talk will change everything.
