AI Implementation Masterclass in Makati: Bridging Strategy and Execution

Three days after our Cebu lab, the AI Implementation Masterclass landed at Zero-Ten Park in Legazpi Village, Makati, organized by the GOAB Beach Club with Symph and Zero-Ten Park.

Ground truth, not hype

Lead speaker Tim Santos heads the Philippine AI Report and brings product leadership from the global AI hardware space. The goal for the day: help leaders leave with a clear, step-by-step 30-60-90 day AI execution playbook.

The workshop

  1. The local landscape: strategies that work in the Philippine business ecosystem, not just in Silicon Valley.
  2. Live strategy sprint: using LLMs and expert frameworks to find and pressure-test high-impact AI use cases.
  3. Finalizing your 30-60-90: turning ideas into an executable plan, with peer review.

Participants came prepared with a laptop, one real business process or bottleneck to solve, and an active pro account for an LLM.

Bonus for founders: building for longevity

Tim also shared how to spot AI products with long-term value, and which ones risk being cannibalized by Big Tech or made obsolete by the next frontier model.

Going deeper: private strategic advisory

After the main workshop, Tim offered two 90-minute one-on-one advisory slots (by application) for leaders who wanted to stress-test their strategy and refine their roadmap for production.

Moderated by Hannah Hormiguera and Shad de la Cruz of Symph.co, with support from Tech Listens. Thank you to Zero-Ten Park for the space.
