What you likely need
You'd get the most out of Festival events that put you in the room with cybersecurity-focused VCs and growth-stage founders who need exactly the kind of strategic credibility THRAXOS offers. Dinners and roundtables where you can workshop your responsible AI thought-leadership positioning — and get honest feedback on productizing your Ethics in AI curriculum — would accelerate both your fundraising narrative and your public profile. Events that let you broker introductions between your MoFo venture-relationships network and founders in the room are where you'll generate the most immediate business development momentum.
