Industry Ecosystem Track

A leadership bootcamp to build decision frameworks and execution playbooks for GCC growth, capital attraction, risk management, and talent-to-outcomes strategy.

Industry Ecosystem Track is an instructor-led bootcamp designed for ecosystem leaders and teams who need a shared operating model to drive economic outcomes. The track is highly applied: every module blends lecture with simulations and workshops, resulting in templates, checklists, dashboards, and ready-to-use playbooks. Participants learn how global HQs decide, what metrics and narratives trigger reinvestment, how to handle crisis scenarios, how to evaluate capital partnerships, and how to build skilling as long-term economic infrastructure—ending with a capstone execution plan and 90-day operating calendar.

List of Modules in this Track

00

Opening Frame: Ecosystem as an Operating System

Define what you control vs influence, shift from activity to outcome ownership, and adopt a shared impact scorecard (time to first GCC commitment, reinvestment rate, senior roles added, 24-month talent retention).

01

Risk, People & Technology Foundations

Cybersecurity as a leadership topic + a cyber incident tabletop simulation (first 24 hours / 72 hours / 7 days), and people leadership in large institutions: incentives, accountability, ambiguity, and execution cadence. Outputs include crisis checklists, communication do/don’t guides, and execution recovery templates.

02

AI, Startups & Capital

GenAI use-case sprint: pick a high-friction problem, assess data readiness, risk and trust, build vs buy, and define success metrics with 90-day kill criteria. Plus capital partnership thinking: evaluation framework, monitoring beyond returns, and red-flag checklist for ecosystem fund partnerships.

03

Investment Themes & GCC Decision-Making

Global investment themes workshop (AI, innovation, climate, deeptech) and a GCC strategy deep-dive: who decides at HQ, why brand/risk/narrative matter, persona mapping, and a post-mortem lab with early warning signals and intervention playbooks.

04

GCC Marketing, Risk & Reinvestment Narratives

Marketing the ecosystem as a product: craft a one-line GCC pitch and a three-slide official narrative. Then move from job counts to strategic outcomes with a risk reframing workshop: resilience messaging toolkit and metrics that support reinvestment conversations.

05

Leadership, Communication & Skilling Infrastructure

Boardroom communication drills for CXO / board conversations, then skilling as an economic flywheel: design a pilot-ready skilling blueprint with ROI and retention dashboards. Ends with a capstone leadership session and a real-priority execution plan with a 90-day operating calendar.

Why This Track

Playbooks, Not Theory

Every module produces templates, checklists, dashboards, and action-ready artifacts.

Boardroom Confidence

Build credibility in high-stakes conversations with global HQs, investors, and senior stakeholders.

Cyber Crisis Simulation

Tabletop decision rounds with leader-level crisis checklists and communication guidance.

GenAI Pilot Sprint

Pick a pain point, assess data readiness and trust risk, decide build vs buy, define kill criteria.
