More than a business event
BD2AI brings together senior Big Data, AI and technology leaders for two days of meaningful conversations, carefully matched meetings, thought leadership, networking and time to recharge.
Connect. Discover. Recharge.
Put your brand in front of the people who decide.
BD2AI offers vendors a unique opportunity to engage directly with senior decision-makers across the Big Data and AI ecosystem through a choice of Silver, Gold and Platinum partnership packages. Each package is carefully designed to provide meaningful, high-value engagement, combining pre-arranged one-to-one meetings, dedicated tabletop presence and premium sponsorship opportunities throughout the retreat.
Partners can align their brand with key moments across the BD2AI experience, including breakfasts, dinners, wellness and yoga sessions, and exclusive after-hours events.
More than traditional event sponsorship, BD2AI is designed to create genuine business conversations. Our partners gain direct access to CDOs, CIOs, CTOs, Chief AI Officers, Chief Data Officers and other senior technology and business leaders — giving them the opportunity to showcase their solutions, understand real business challenges, build relationships and create new commercial opportunities.
Choose your level of partnership and put your brand, solutions and expertise directly in front of the people who have the influence to drive meaningful business decisions.
Your journey to BD2AI.
Before the Retreat
We work closely with you to understand your objectives, solutions and ideal customer profile. This allows our team to carefully curate the right mix of senior decision-makers and opportunities for you across the two-day BD2AI experience.
Four Weeks Before
You’ll receive detailed profiles of the attending decision-makers, giving you valuable insight into their roles, priorities and business challenges. From this, you can identify the people you’d most like to connect with.
One Week Before
Your personalised BD2AI agenda will be shared with you, featuring your priority meeting selections alongside attendees who have expressed an interest in meeting with your organisation.
At BD2AI
Your two-day experience is built around meaningful, pre-arranged one-to-one meetings with senior decision-makers. Short, focused meetings give you the opportunity to introduce your business, understand their challenges and explore where your solutions can add genuine value — without the pressure of lengthy presentations.
Alongside your one-to-one meetings, BD2AI combines thought leadership, peer-to-peer discussions, curated networking, exceptional dining and wellness experiences.
From breakfast conversations and roundtables to dinners, yoga and exclusive social events, every element is designed to create an environment where business relationships develop naturally, conversations go deeper and valuable connections continue beyond the meeting room.
