This document discusses mission-driven startups. It defines mission-driven startups as those that build their culture, growth, values, metrics, and outcomes around their cause. It notes that while all startups solve problems, mission-driven ones see problems as epidemics and work to fundamentally improve entire industries. It emphasizes inspiring customers with the company mission to create evangelism, advocacy, and stories for customers to share. It also stresses the importance of mission-driven metrics like customer happiness and recommendations to measure success.

5 Key Steps to a Growth Strategy that Works Immediately w/ Nilan Peiris, VP G...TheFamily
You know that your startup grows at the rate of which your KPIs move and by how much better your product is than the alternatives. But the limiting factor of growth is your team’s confidence. If they fear failure and you can’t build their confidence and conviction at scale, then that’s really gonna hurt you.
How do you make your teams push boundaries and embrace failure while:
- creating a mission driven startup
- making customers happy, sustainably
- building conviction
- And all of the above at scale?

How to Design Compelling Content ExperiencesUberflip
When you break it down, it’s not content that converts visitors, that compels them to opt-in to your marketing. If it was that easy, quantity and quality would be all you needed. But no, it’s the experience that ties it all together.
Can you attract an audience with value, encourage them to interact with content that engages them, and deliver the right call to action at the right time?
In this presentation, Uberflip’s Hana Abaza and SnapApp’s Vanessa Porter discuss how to leverage new interactive content formats in tandem with a content experience that’s optimized to make it all work.
This interactive session: "You are the creative agency”, will see TRIBE Founder Jules Lund turn the audience into a creative agency. In his inimitable and entertaining style, Jules will delve into a vision where consumers will be able to supply the creative for multi-channel brand campaigns by simply pulling their devices from their pockets – and with the help of our audience, he will show how this can happen.
He will also reveal why this is set to transform the advertising industry in less than a decade, partly driven by the ascension of millennials to the c-suite.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
