VIP Play CEO Les Ottolenghi to Keynote Exclusive Chief AI Officer Exchange

LAS VEGAS – VIP Play, Inc. (OTCQB: VIPZ), an AI-first sports entertainment and fan engagement company, is positioning itself as a key player in the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence leadership. CEO Les Ottolenghi is slated to deliver the opening plenary keynote at the Chief AI Officer Exchange on October 21st at 8:30 a.m. CDT. His address, titled “Defining Intelligence: How CAIOs Lead Strategy, Set the Narrative, and Win the Boardroom,” directly addresses the critical, often misunderstood, role of the Chief AI Officer (CAIO) in today’s enterprise environment.

As companies across all sectors grapple with the transformative potential of AI, the CAIO role has emerged as pivotal, yet its responsibilities and strategic importance remain murky. Ottolenghi, drawing upon his experience as an AI transformation strategist and former Fortune 500 CIO, aims to provide clarity. He plans to offer a blueprint for CAIOs to become effective translators, bridging the gap between technical AI complexities and clear, actionable business strategy. This involves building confidence within boardrooms regarding the value and implementation of AI initiatives.

The keynote will outline a practical framework for business leaders, detailing how CAIOs can navigate the key phases of AI development through 2030. It will also highlight the essential responsibilities CAIOs must embrace to establish trust and steer their organizations effectively. Drawing from established enterprise strategies, Ottolenghi will demonstrate how CAIOs can foster alignment among stakeholders, accelerate the adoption of AI technologies, and establish themselves not only as tech experts but also as the voice of the future in boardroom discussions and the voice of the customer throughout the company.

“Artificial intelligence is fundamentally reshaping business models, and more importantly, redefining leadership paradigms,” said Ottolenghi. “The Chief AI Officer sits squarely at the center of this transformation. The CAIO who successfully translates the complexities of AI into strategic action will be best positioned to secure a competitive advantage and ultimately define the trajectory of their industry. This event serves to equip leaders with the clarity and the strategic frameworks needed to win in what is increasingly a winner-take-all market.”

Ottolenghi’s presence at the Chief AI Officer Exchange highlights VIP Play’s commitment to pioneering AI-driven experiences within the sports media and fan engagement sectors. The company’s active participation in these discussions positions VIP Play as a thought leader contributing to the development and implementation of AI strategies at the highest levels of corporate governance. Its focus on AI-powered personalization and predictive insights could give it a competitive edge in a rapidly evolving market.
