Launched in 2025, the Daily Maverick × Imagineers.ai GenAI Masterclasses have sold out every single time — driven by overwhelming demand and standout attendee feedback.
This isn't just a course. It's a one-of-a-kind strategic AI retreat for professionals who want to move from watching the wave to riding it.
"I cannot think of anything more valuable I will do this year."René Morse — National Claims Manager, ONE Insurance
You've experimented with AI tools. Got some interesting results. Maybe even impressed yourself once or twice.
After two intensive days, you'll have working AI workflows for your specific role. Not theory — actual systems you'll use daily.
No lectures. No theory dumps. Just practical, hands-on sessions that give you workflows you can use immediately.
A laptop, basic computer skills, and genuine commitment to learning. No prior AI experience required — just curiosity and your real-world professional challenges.
Think of AI as your new competitive advantage. Here's what that looks like in practice.
| What you want | How AI gets you there |
|---|---|
| Win new business with polished presentations | Create compelling sales decks and client proposals faster |
| Build prototype websites & apps | Save time and money prototyping new ideas |
| Master strategic decisions in hours, not weeks | Build decision matrices that rival consultant deliverables — in 2 hours instead of 2 weeks |
| Build complex financial models | Generate sophisticated spreadsheets, forecasts, and scenario analyses at speed |
| Automate repetitive tasks | Scale your output without adding headcount |
| Write marketing copy like a pro | Use proven techniques to write expert marketing copy |
| Design and edit images | Save time and costs generating expert-looking visuals |
| Eliminate reading overload | Summarise 100-page reports, RFPs, and financials in minutes |
| Walk into any meeting as the best-prepared person | Build frameworks and questions, even on unfamiliar topics |
Work at 10× speed. Access specialist knowledge on demand. Every day.
"This is AI for someone who actively needs to use it to improve performance and deliver results — as opposed to using it to be lazy."
"This was a great experience. I loved the passion and energy of the facilitators. Invaluable for opening my world to possibility and taking clear next steps."
"A significant upscaling from what I thought I knew and practised. It's made a huge difference."
"Frontier work."
Only 12 seats per session. You'll get direct time with expert facilitators, space for your specific questions, and meaningful peer connections.
No lectures. No theory dumps. You'll spend most of your time actually using AI tools, building workflows, and solving real problems from your business.
Every example, exercise, and case study is designed for senior professionals. No generic consumer use cases. Just relevant, applicable learning.
You'll leave with working AI workflows, a 90-day plan, and the confidence to integrate AI into your Monday-morning routine. Not someday — immediately.
It's whether you'll lead that transformation. The professionals who master AI now won't just survive the next decade of change — they'll define it.
