Simon Torrance helps organisations move beyond basic AI pilots to deploy autonomous digital workforces that fundamentally transform business economics and deliver three to ten times capacity expansion.
Simon founded AI Risk, a specialist innovation firm focused on Agentic AI deployment. He advises senior leaders across financial services, insurance, technology, media, telecommunications and biotechnology sectors. Simon is a member of the World Economic Forum and guest lecturer at Singularity University. He also authored Fightback: How to Win in the Digital Economy and is the creator of widely used frameworks including The Agentic AI Accelerator and The AI Maturity Model.
Simon's work addresses a critical gap: while most organisations remain stuck running chatbot and copilot pilots, he guides companies to implement Agentic Teams, autonomous AI systems that work alongside humans, to achieve exponential productivity gains. His approach enables firms to build proprietary AI capabilities they own outright, creating appreciating strategic assets rather than renting commoditised solutions available to competitors. This shift from Level 1 AI maturity to advanced agentic deployment fundamentally changes cost structures and competitive positioning.
Audiences learn how to assess their current AI maturity level, identify specific opportunities for Agentic AI implementation in their operations, and develop roadmaps for building owned AI capabilities that deliver measurable capacity expansion. Simon provides practical frameworks for moving from experimentation to strategic deployment.
Book Simon to understand how Agentic AI can transform your organisation's fundamental economics and competitive advantage.
