Important Update — The Future of AI in Business is Moving to July 2026
Here is the honest story.
Registrations for this event exceeded 300 people faster than we anticipated. When we went back to Sarit Expo Centre to expand the space and accommodate everyone — we were told the halls are fully booked for a boxing match on 20th June.
We are not squeezing 300 plus people into a space that cannot hold them properly. We are not rushing a last minute venue and compromising the experience. We are moving to July with a larger venue and breakout sessions that the original space could not accommodate.
Your registration is fully valid. Your seat is reserved. No action needed from your side.
New date and venue will be confirmed within 48 hours. Watch your email for the update.
If the new date does not work for you email info@cresdynamics.com or WhatsApp +254 708 805 496 and we will process your refund immediately. No questions asked.
Thank you for your patience and for making this event bigger than we planned.

What is broken behind the scenes?
What Is Silently Killing Your Growth?
Most growing enterprises in Kenya aren't failing due to product quality; they are hitting a ceiling because their internal operations are stuck in the past. At this summit, we pull back the curtain on live, active systems built to solve these exact local problems.
🔴 The Sales Leak
Your team spends 70% of their day manually typing orders from WhatsApp into legacy accounting software instead of closing enterprise deals.
🔴 The Hiring Trap
You struggle to hire top talent because high-tier performers refuse to work in chaotic environments that lack automated workflows and clear role-based tracking.
🔴 The Management Blind Spot
As a founder, you are forced to be in every micro-decision because you lack unified cashflow dashboards that show who owns what and where projects are stuck.
High-level corporate authority — operators taking notes, not passive audiences.
