We Complement AI Skills
with Deep Business Knowledge and
Core Interpersonal Skills

AI without business understanding is a tool with no purpose. But AI skills layered with deep domain knowledge in business AND the skillset of collaboration, adaptability, work ethic, and communication position our students' expertise for the ultimate career marketability. 

AI + Sustainability = Solutions at Scale

While we continue the important work of innovating for a more sustainable AI infrastructure, we also believe that AI is essential for reaching the scale needed to supercharge organizations’ sustainability impact and empower business leaders to build a better world.

We Convene AI Leaders
from Silicon Valley and Beyond

Our students meaningfully connect with the AI pioneers shaping our world—like Google’s President Kent Walker or Microsoft’s President Brad Smith.
