Leverage brought together Roshan Sood and Tim Daines for a practical conversation on identifying the right problems before reaching for AI tools.

They explored how founders can uncover real bottlenecks, build smarter systems, and use AI as leverage rather than adding technology for technology’s sake.

No hype. No generic AI advice. Just practical frameworks from operators who are building with it.

02

Show Up

Small rooms, real conversations – no stage, no pitch decks, just founders and builders sharing what actually moves the needle.

03

See You in November

Every Road to PlanX event feeds into the main stage – the relationships you build here carry into the Grand Hyatt Dubai summit.
