Retreats

Sadly, due to Covid19, our planned events for 2020 were postponed. Please sign up to our mailing list to stay informed of the new dates for our retreats as the situation with the pandemic is rapidly evolving. We have currently tentatively scheduled a retreat for summer 2024.

Summer retreat - Norway, July 2024

Artificial intelligence, it seems, is both an unquantifiable ingredient of technology and a fact of life. The multi-directional evolution of AI makes the subject area difficult to quantify, track or describe succinctly. We need a bit of time and space for that. This meeting of minds at the AI retreat in Norway is an opportunity to re-group, take stock, and chart the mindscape.

This is a small event with very limited tickets, which are by application only. Exceptional graduates from the dojo will receive an invite along with luminaries in the field of artificial intelligence. We are also open to warm referrals through our network. 

The ticket price includes all workshop sessions, fireside chats with leaders in the field, excursions, accommodation and food.

Venue

Our venue is the stunning Juvet Hotel in Norway, which some of you may recognise from the ground-breaking movie, Ex Machina.

Juvet is a place like no other, designed by Jensen & Skodvin it was built to allow a deep appreciation of the dramatic beauty of the surrounding landscape. The hotel's rooms are spread through the surrounding forest with views of a mighty river, each is a masterpiece of contemporary Norwegian design. In their centre sits the extraordinary Ceremony Room where we'll spend much of our days, whose huge glass window overlooks the fjord below. Opposite is the beautiful traditional Farmhouse where, warmed by huge log fires, we'll get to enjoy incredible food prepared, and often grown, or indeed caught, by the wonderful crew who run Juvet.

This will be our home for the the week, an ideal setting to relax, reflect and reconnect with your sense of purpose as a leader in Big Data Ninjitsu™️
