The work, in three formats.

Every engagement draws on the same foundation — 5+ plus years spent measuring AI at Stanford: its capability, cost, adoption, regulation and more. What changes is the format. Choose the one that best fits your organization.

Organizations Briefed

01

ADVISORY

Enterprise AI Advisory

For leadership teams deciding where AI belongs in the business. The work begins with an audit of what your data, systems and people can support today, and ends with a sequenced roadmap: which use cases first, what to build against what to buy, how to know whether any of it is working and how to embed responsibility from the get-go. Nestor sits on your side of the table with no software to sell and no delivery team to keep busy.

The slides are new each time. Questions are welcome and answered plainly. Popular topics include: the state of AI, re-imagining work in the AI era, AI and geopolitics, building productive AI organizations and why responsible AI matters.

EDUCATION

Executive Education

These sessions aim to build AI fluency so that organizational leaders can make the right decisions about AI. Built on Stanford teaching and research experience, the sessions cover what the technology is, what it costs, where it fails, and how to evaluate the claims made about it. Curriculums are highly customizable with over 200+ hours of reference material. Formats run from a half-day board intensive to a rolling curriculum for the whole workforce. The material is designed to outlast the session.
