How your AI startup can launch against entrenched incumbents l TechCrunch Sessions: AI

The harsh reality of the AI sector is that it’s dominated by a select group of well-funded incumbents. That doesn’t mean new companies can’t break through, but it makes it all that much harder for them to do so — making advice on how to succeed all that much more vital.

At TechCrunch Sessions: AI, Odyssey Co-Founder Oliver Cameron, Linear COO Cristina Cordova, and NEA Partner Ann Bordetsky explored their proven strategies for finding success as they fended off formidable rivals, in a conversation moderated by Senior AI Editor Kyle Wiggers.
