Two days to think clearly about where technology is taking us.
A small retreat for people who build the future and rarely get to step back from it.
Request an invitation01 — The idea
Two days, set aside. Conversations about where artificial intelligence is taking us — and the older questions underneath — held slowly, in good company.
Between the conversations: meditation, unhurried meals, a good bottle of wine, and a quiet place to walk. You arrive in the gears of everyday work. You leave with a little more clarity than you came with.
02 — What makes it different
Four things rarely sit at the same table: senior judgment about technology, philosophy, a contemplative practice, and genuine hospitality.
Most retreats offer one of them. A leadership offsite has the strategy but not the silence. A meditation week has the silence but not the substance. A good dinner has the warmth but no through-line. This holds all four at once, and lets them change one another over two days.
It is not a course, and not a conference. It is a small group of people who think for a living, given the time and the setting to think well, together.

04 — Your host
Your host comes to this from inside technology, not above it: a senior background in user experience and human–computer interaction, years of university teaching and research, and two decades building in regulated fields — medical devices, laboratory, and equipment.
The point is not the host. It is the questions. The host is simply the person who keeps the room honest, the hours unhurried, and the conversation moving.
05 — Invitation
The group is kept small and selective, by design. If it sounds like your kind of two days, tell me a little about yourself.
This isn't a booking. It is the start of a conversation. Everyone who writes receives a reply.
Thank you, there.
Your note is with me. I read each one personally and will write back, usually within a few days.
