AI is everywhere, and every day a new startup promises to change the world. However, once the hype fades, what actually lasts?At this event, Fatih Bildirici will share what it takes to build a tech company that isn't just part of the latest wave, but built to endure. We'll explore why so many startups rise and fall with trends, what "sustainability" truly means in technology, and how some founders manage to keep their companies alive long after the buzz fades.
Artificial longevity. Everyone wants to build the next big thing in AI, but what about building something that still matters after the hype is gone? Why do some tech startups survive, while others disappear as fast as they appear?
