Runway and the Race to Define Generative Video

Anastasis Germanidis

Co-Founder & Co-CEO Runway

Connie Loizos

Editor in Chief & General Manager TechCrunch

Runway has quickly become one of the most closely watched companies in generative AI, particularly as video moves to the center of the conversation. Co-founder Anastasis Germanidis joins us to talk about building in a market that’s in real time, how the company is thinking about competition and distribution, and what founders and investors should actually be paying attention to right now.

3:40PM – 4:05PM

From AI Product to Paying Customers

Dimitris Vassos

Co-founder & CEO Omilia

Victoria Toli

Co-founder & CPO Finny

Victoria Toli (Finny) and Dimitris Vassos (Omilia) are focused on a part of the AI conversation that gets less attention: turning products into actual revenue. They’ll talk about what it takes to find and convert the right customers, how enterprise expectations are shifting, and why distribution and positioning are becoming as important as the underlying technology.

4:05PM – 4:45PM
