What you likely need
You're one of the most credentialed XAI researchers in the world, but your impact is currently concentrated in academic and Google DeepMind circles — Festival events can help you translate that into startup advisory roles, a direct practitioner audience, and a stronger public voice. The highest-value gatherings for you are small, high-trust rooms where your interpretability expertise meets founders building AI products who need exactly what you know. You'll also benefit from structured formats that let you engage the community sustainably, given the high inbound demand your LinkedIn note hints at.
