The Future
Isn't Coming.
It's Already Working.
AI Employees. Intelligent Automation. The new operating system for business delivered live by the entrepreneur running 25+ companies on it.
Meet Preston Weekes
Technology Entrepreneur.
AI Strategist.
Business Builder.
Preston Weekes has founded and scaled more than 25 companies across artificial intelligence, automation, publishing, recruiting, education, and professional services.
Unlike most AI speakers, Preston isn't researching the future. He's already operating inside it.
Every business he owns runs on AI employees, intelligent automation, and custom operating systems that allow small teams to accomplish what traditionally required entire departments.
His companies are powered by Business Force One — the operating system he built to replace disconnected software and repetitive human work with intelligent automation.
Backed by Mark Victor Hansen, co-creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul, Preston has advised founders, executives, and organizations ranging from startups to Fortune 500 companies.

Stages & Keynotes
The Difference
This Is Not Another
AI Presentation.
Most AI talks are about prompts. Or ChatGPT. Or what's coming someday.
This keynote is different.
Every concept is demonstrated using real businesses, real AI employees, real customer conversations, and real operational systems already producing results today.
Attendees don't just leave inspired. They leave with a roadmap they can begin implementing immediately.
