As data, analytics, and AI move to the center of organizations, they are changing both business and operating models. Without the operating constraints that limit traditional companies, AI-centric organizations are redefining how they create, capture, and share value—and are achieving unbridled growth across a variety of industries.
Participants in this live online program will explore new operating models and architectures, as well as different structures, capabilities, and leadership skills to help them succeed in today's data-driven AI-first environment. Led by Professors Marco Iansiti and Karim Lakhani, this program is based on their ground-breaking and critically acclaimed book Competing in the Age of AI: Strategy and Leadership When Algorithms and Networks Run the World. The lead faculty have transformed the key lessons of the book into an engaging online learning experience that applies the AI and platforms lens to enable organizations and their leaders to drive digital transformation.
In addition to the weekly live, synchronous classes with faculty, participants will spend 2-3 hours each week on self-paced lessons on an online learning platform. These lessons feature all new material developed by the faculty, and focus on leading companies such as Ant Financial, Microsoft, and Moderna. The program is also designed to create connectivity and networking among participants through peer collaboration, simulation, and engagement with AI leaders and mentors.

The program takes place over eight weeks, with one live, synchronous session (interactive case discussion, simulation or expert panels) and three-to-five hours of self-paced learning and small discussion groups per week. Class sessions will take place via the Zoom platform, and will be offered at two different times to accommodate multiple time zones. Participants will be part of custom-tailored peer groups to drive learning, engagement, and networking throughout the course. The program will extensively use digital tools to enhance community, interaction, and knowledge creation and dissemination.
An extensive network of analytics and AI mentors will be leveraged to help participants contextualize their learning and derive further insights. Collaborative learning is an integral part of this virtual experience. To maximize the benefit for everyone, participants are expected to attend every session, complete all assignments, and contribute effectively in the Zoom classroom and in small peer groups.
