At Clever People Talks, conversations go beyond theory — they are real-world explorations of design, business, and innovation, led by entrepreneurs, designers, and industry leaders. Running from Thursday, May 15, to Sunday, May 18, these sessions challenge conventional thinking, spark new ideas, and offer practical insights from those actively reshaping their fields.

Sunday’s discussions focus on technology, uncovering how AI and digital tools are transforming creative industries. As artificial intelligence reshapes workflows, it offers new opportunities for entrepreneurs, designers, and small businesses to scale without increasing overhead. In Creativity Multiplied: How AI Can Scale Entrepreneurial Ambition, Chris Heywood explores how AI is accelerating creative processes across design, brand development, and strategic thinking. Through practical examples, this session highlights AI’s role as a force multiplier, unlocking new possibilities, and amplifying creative impact without replacing human insight. This talk invites us to rethink how technology and creativity intersect, offering a glimpse into a future where machine efficiency and human innovation work hand in hand to drive meaningful, scalable progress.

Creativity Multiplied: How AI Can Scale Entrepreneurial Ambition forms part of Swensk’s marketplace of makers. For four days Swenk’s clients take centre stage as creators, designers, and entrepreneurs. The Clever People Market is an opportunity to explore and purchase artisanal goods, fashion, design objects, and creative services —all crafted by the very people who shop at Swensk and share its values of functionality, quality, longevity, and thoughtful design.
