Musly In Conversation with Mariam Ahmed | Using AI to Scale Your Business | Villa Mamas, London | 16th July

Members will gather at Villa Mamas for an intimate conversation with Mariam Ahmed, CTO and Co-Founder of Menza.
AI is everywhere.
Every week brings a new tool, a new trend, and a new promise of exponential growth. Yet for most founders and business owners, the challenge isn't access to AI, it's knowing what actually creates value.
In this session, Mariam will cut through the noise and share how fast growing businesses are using AI to improve operations, increase efficiency, and unlock meaningful growth.
Drawing on her experience building Menza, a Y Combinator-backed intelligence platform used by leading consumer brands across Europe and the US, as well as conversations with hundreds of business leaders, Mariam will focus on real world applications rather than theory.
Topics on the table include:
• Where AI is genuinely creating leverage for businesses today
• The biggest mistakes founders make when adopting AI
• Practical workflows and tools worth paying attention to
• How to use AI to improve productivity across teams
• What business owners should automate, and what they shouldn't
• Building an AI strategy that drives growth rather than distraction
The session will follow a workshop style format with opportunities for discussion, questions, and practical takeaways that members can apply immediately within their own businesses.
Whether you're a founder, operator, consultant, or business owner looking to scale more effectively, this evening is designed to provide actionable insights rather than hype.
Following the conversation, members will have the opportunity to ask questions and continue the discussion over dinner.
