Who it is for
  • Founders, directors and C-suite building with AI rather than reading about it
  • Graduates of Oxford AI executive education who want the hands-on follow-through
  • Consultants, and senior NHS, university and public-sector staff
  • Anyone who uses AI daily but has never chained several steps together
What you will build
  • A working agentic pipeline running against a real task from your own work
  • A review step that checks the output, so the pipeline compounds rather than single-shots
  • A written recipe for the workflow, so you can rebuild and extend it on Monday

Questions

Is the September date confirmed?

The date is set for Wednesday 9 September 2026. The room booking at St Anne's is being finalised, so the venue line on this page will be updated the moment it is signed off. If anything moves, everyone registered hears first.

How do I register for Cohort 2?

Registration opens shortly — the booking page is being prepared. Leave your email on this page and you will be told the moment it opens, before it is announced publicly.

Do I need to be technical?

No. The bootcamp is built for operators, not engineers. No coding is required and the day is facilitated in the room, so nobody spends it stuck on setup.

What should I bring?

A laptop and one real task from your own work that currently costs you meaningful time each week. That task is what you build against all day.

How big is the cohort?

Capped at roughly twenty-five people. Cohort 1 ran with sixteen. The day is facilitated rather than lectured, which stops working much above that.

Seats will be limited.

Capped at 25 so the day stays facilitated rather than lectured.
