AI4 Business Strategy - For CEOs & leaders

AI is no longer the differentiator. Strategic clarity is. Many leaders are investing time, budgets, and attention into AI while their strategy is still running on habits, meetings, and “busy” execution. The result is a quiet contradiction: more tools, more activity… and less certainty about direction. This workshop is built to resolve that dissonance—fast.

In one focused, high-impact event, you will experience two complementary sessions that turn AI from “interesting” into decisive: the first strengthens your strategic compass and execution discipline; the second applies AI to growth decisions such as market expansion, competitive intelligence, due diligence, and acquisition target screening—without requiring technical skills or complex models.

Introduced by Luigino Bottega, Chief AI & Innovation Officer of ITL Group https://www.linkedin.com/in/luiginobottega/

| Session 1 — Clarity, Priorities, and Fast Execution |

Alessandro Farina (Managing Director, ITL Group https://www.linkedin.com/in/alessandro-farina/ ) leads a practical, business-first session designed for decision-makers who want to use AI as an accelerator without losing focus, control, or direction. You’ll see why many companies stay “busy” yet drift without a clear business plan—and how to fix the strategic mistakes that slow growth, confuse teams, and weaken execution.

You’ll work with a simple, reusable framework that reconnects vision → structure → execution, and a pragmatic logic for turning insight into action: insight → hypothesis → choice → execution. The goal is to leave with clearer priorities, stronger decision-making, better alignment across teams, and next steps that are measurable and actionable.

Ideal for: CEOs, founders, CFOs, and leaders managing growth, change, complexity, and multi-stakeholder environments—especially those who want strategy and governance that translate into execution.

| Session 2 — Market Expansion, M&A Target Screening, and Growth Opportunities |

Edoardo Grigione (Founder, Aries76 Ltd | AI & Finance Educator | 25+ years in capital raising & strategic advisory https://www.linkedin.com/in/edoardogrigione/ ) delivers a hands-on, data-driven session focused on how to evaluate opportunities faster and more accurately. Traditional market analysis and due diligence are often slow, expensive, and biased. In this session, you’ll learn practical AI workflows to accelerate research, reduce bias, improve decision quality, and turn strategic data into actionable recommendations.

You will learn how to use AI to:
• Analyze macro and industry data to identify market opportunities
• Conduct competitive intelligence more thoroughly
• Screen and evaluate acquisition targets systematically
• Assess market attractiveness and entry strategies
• Identify integration synergies and risks
• Build data-driven investment theses and recommendations


Tools covered (hands-on): ChatGPT, Manus, Claude, an AI Canvas approach for structuring due diligence and investment decisions, plus practical workflows for M&A screening and evaluation. You’ll also learn when to use which tool and how to combine them effectively.

| What you will take home |
• A clearer strategic compass: where you are, where you’re going, what to prioritize, and what to stop doing
• A practical method to convert insight into decisions and execution
• Repeatable templates and frameworks for market analysis and due diligence
• A step-by-step screening methodology you can use immediately on real opportunities
• A stronger mindset: AI as a strategic partner that amplifies judgment (not replaces it)

| The real question this workshop answers |
If your competitors can access the same AI tools, what will make you win—speed, or better choices? This event is for leaders who want the advantage that doesn’t fade: clear priorities, disciplined execution, and AI-supported decision-making that creates measurable progress. Bring your laptop, your real challenges, and your ambition to move from “working hard” to winning on purpose.
