CMU’s Corporate Startup Lab (CSL), in partnership with Deloitte, invites you to join us on April 16th, 2026 for ROAI - an in-person event exploring how companies are translating AI investments into meaningful business outcomes. With growing pressure to show tangible ROI, the focus has shifted from experimentation to execution to realizing value. ROAI brings together leaders from industry, venture, and academia to share what’s working, what’s not, and what’s next.
Hosted at CMU’s Swartz Center for Entrepreneurship and the Tepper School of Business, the afternoon will feature thought-provoking talks, candid conversations, and actionable insights.
