Agentic AI
From chatbot to autonomous worker
AI agents now run multi-step jobs on their own: answering email, pulling data, delivering reports. Early enterprises save 30% FTE on repetitive work.

What's happening now
Four AI movements hitting your market this quarter
Remy travels monthly to Silicon Valley and Shenzhen. These are the developments now hitting every boardroom — translated straight to your sector during a keynote.
China vs US
The AI race is now a two-horse fight
DeepSeek, Qwen and Kimi perform at GPT-5 level — for a fraction of the price. What does it mean for your vendor strategy when China catches up?

Productivity
Vibecoding makes everyone a developer
Non-technical teams now ship their own tools in hours instead of months. It changes who creates value in your organisation — and who becomes redundant.

AI cost control
Token bills are exploding — how do you keep them in check?
Uber blew through its annual AI budget by March. Power users run dry, invoices double every quarter. Remy shows how to ration, prioritise, allocate cost per team and cut up to 70% with smart routing and caching — without losing productivity.

Tokenmaxxing
Open source & small language models take over
Teams run Llama, Mistral and DeepSeek locally or on their own GPUs. Small language models do 80% of the work for 5% of the cost — and your token budget no longer flows to a single vendor.

Agentic Operations
From coding agents to zero person companies
Coding agents like OpenClaw and Hermes AI build, test and deploy software 24/7. Solo founders now run entire businesses on agents — the first 'zero person companies' are already doing millions in revenue.

Jagged Frontier
Frontier professionals win, the rest stalls
AI is brilliant at one task and hopeless at the next — the 'jagged frontier'. Employees who learn where that line sits (frontier professionals) are already 40% more productive than colleagues who avoid AI.

Physical AI
Humanoid robots, dark factories & autonomous delivery
Figure, Unitree and Tesla Optimus are rolling into factories running lights-out through the night. Drone operations and autonomous delivery are shifting from pilots to daily logistics in EU cities.

01
The next 1000 days decide who wins. This is the roadmap.
AI in the Next 1000 Days
Remy's most requested keynote. In less than three years AI changes how we work, decide and compete. Remy shows the signals already visible today — agents in the back office, humanoids on the factory floor, companies turning over millions with a handful of people — and what frontrunners do differently. Your audience goes home with a 1000-day roadmap: what to do this quarter, this year, and what to steer towards 2028. Inspiring where it can be, pragmatic where it must be.

02
The state of AI right now: what's real, what's hype — and what it means for you.
State of Intelligence 2026
What has really changed in AI this quarter, which frontrunners can you learn from, and what does it mean for your organisation? Remy walks the audience through the current state of intelligence: from enterprise AI and agentic operations to European sovereignty and AI cost control. With fresh cases from Silicon Valley, China and Europe — translated into decisions your audience can take this month.
30-90 minMore
03
The skills that make your people work smarter tomorrow.
AI Skills 2026
The technology isn't the bottleneck — what your people can do with it is. Remy shows which skills make the difference in 2026: from senior-level prompting and vibecoding to safe use of company data and working alongside agents. No theory: every skill comes with tools and examples your audience will use that same week. The result: less admin work, more output, and a team that dares to use AI.
30-90 minMore
04
From chatbot to digital colleague: agents that get work done.
AI Agents 2026
Autonomous agents no longer assist — they execute work independently. As co-founder of The Automation Group, Remy puts agents into production every week at Dutch and European organisations. On stage he shows exactly which workflows work, what they cost, where they break at scale and where humans remain indispensable. Your audience leaves with a shared view of the agent use-case that could go live in your organisation this month.

Why Remy
Why organisers book Remy
150+ keynotes a year, 350+ organisations, 8.4 audience rating. But above all: a story that sticks because it's about your people — not about the technology.
01
Inspiration that lands
Remy opens the view: what's coming, what frontrunners do differently, where this is heading. But he always lands on the concrete — the tools, routines and choices that make your audience work smarter tomorrow. Vision and action list, in one story.
02
A tailored story for every audience
Executives hear which strategic routes are open. Managers how to bring their team along. Professionals what to do differently tomorrow. Remy tunes content, tone and examples to who is in the room — from boardroom to company-wide kick-off.
03
Fresh from the frontier
Remy builds and tests himself, weekly: agents in production, the newest models, the tools that just shipped. His deck is updated on the day of your event — your audience gets what's happening now, not last quarter's story.
04
Speed with a human touch
How do you change a culture? How do you bring people along without overwhelming them? Remy shows how frontrunners keep the pedal down and keep their people on board — because AI success is ultimately human work.
