🎙️Our Guest Speakers are

Tom Crawley
Fractional CTO & Founder – Neon Mountain

🔥 Fireside Chat:
“If I’d known then what I know now!”

An honest and insightful conversation on the realities of becoming a founder, a journey filled with potholes, speed bumps, green lights, and the ever-present influence of emerging technology.

With 25 years in software development, Tom is no stranger to complex problem-solving. Like many leaders with deep technical roots, he’s seen it all — from rapid scale and technical debt to leadership trade-offs, cultural challenges, and the long-term impact of technology decisions.

Charlotte Fallon 

Fractional CMO, AI Strategist & ND Advocate 

🗣️Tech Talk: AI the swimming pool problem 🤽🏼

A refreshingly honest talk that cuts through the AI noise, sharing what’s actually useful, what’s overhyped, and how leaders can apply AI in ways that genuinely add value.

Since exiting her previous business, Charlotte has been on quite the journey — from her recent ND diagnosis to launching fallon.ai, advising businesses, building practical AI solutions, and helping leaders think differently about technology, accessibility, and impact.

A proud non-techie (we beg to differ!) and AuDHD, Charlotte sees patterns in unexpected places and builds AI systems that work with her brain, not against it — and shares the real benefits of utilising AI when it’s done properly.
