Hello! Clojure is my first professional programming language (since about 1.5). I like Clojure---the language and community---a lot (especially #off-topic in the Slack :). I've helped organise IN/Clojure a few times and written and taught our introductory Clojure workshop, at IN/Clojure and elsewhere.

Obviously, I also *really* like Functional Programming. I use principles of FP *and* a-la-carte object-orientation gleaned from Clojurists, all the time, for all the things!

As of 2026, I'm solo-building software for fun and profit, aligned with my interests / capabilities / life experiences. Clojureland helps me stay ambitious, optimistic, and have fun over the long haul while trying to "make it" in this indie life.

My topics of professional interest are: bi-temporal data systems, full-systems architecture for one-person SaaS apps (FreeBSD appliances anyone?), well, also for teams and organisations, and weather data science and products. AMA!

Ayush Dubey is a Yale School of Management MBA candidate, London Business School exchange student, and emerging speaker at the intersection of AI, technology M&A, private equity value creation, energy transition, and enterprise transformation.

His work focuses on how organizations make better decisions when technology, capital, infrastructure, and human judgment are all changing at once. In private equity advisory, Ayush has worked across technology diligence, carve-out planning, post-merger integration, and value creation strategy. His broader operating experience spans digital transformation, manufacturing technology, AI/ML deployment, energy analytics, sustainability strategy, and global operations.

Ayush’s energy and infrastructure lens is central to his work. At Yale, his academic and project work has covered climate finance, project finance, energy and infrastructure, land use, real assets, sustainable finance, renewable energy, and geothermal commercialization. His capstone work includes geothermal data-center cooling strategy and commercialization for a climate-tech company, as well as forest and carbon decision-support work for land-use protection. At London Business School, his private equity-focused exchange adds exposure to corporate turnarounds, pricing, and strategic innovation, strengthening his ability to connect investment logic with operational execution.

Ayush’s AI thought leadership examines a central question: what happens when AI makes individuals and organizations appear more capable before their judgment, governance, and operating systems have caught up? His CIO.com article, “The 10-Man Parity Rule: When AI Adoption Accelerates Faster Than Organizations Can See,” argues that AI is increasingly pulled into work by employees, quietly outpacing traditional governance and reshaping who gets leverage inside companies.

In 2026, Ayush was selected to speak and present at AI @ Yale Symposium: From Innovation to Impact. His talk, “Clarity before Understanding: How Generative AI Reshapes Judgment in MBA Education,” explored how AI can produce polished synthesis before independent judgment is formed. His connected poster, “The AI Visibility Gap: Why Leaders Misread Capability Inside Their Own Organizations,” translated the same concern into the workplace context, asking how leaders can assess capability when AI changes the visible signals of work.

Ayush also serves as a reviewer for the Academy of Management Annual Meeting in M&A and is listed on the UNESCO Expert Roster in Natural Sciences. He holds a B.Tech. in Aerospace Engineering from IIT Bombay, bringing a systems-level lens to questions of AI adoption, energy transition, corporate transformation, private equity value creation, and leadership judgment.

Olayiwola Akinnagbe is a Senior Backend Engineer and AI researcher working at the intersection of financial technology, distributed systems, and intelligent human–AI collaboration. His work is guided by a clear conviction: systems should not merely function. They should scale, adapt, and strengthen the people who use them.

In the fintech sector, Olayiwola architects API-first, event-driven microservices that power payments, loan origination, and high-volume transaction platforms processing over one million API requests daily. He designs secure and resilient backend infrastructures using Java, Spring Boot, Kafka, and AWS. By applying CQRS principles, low-latency search optimization, and cloud-native deployment strategies, he consistently delivers measurable improvements in latency, throughput, and system reliability.

His contribution extends beyond engineering practice into scholarly research. He is the author of the peer-reviewed paper “Human–AI Collaboration: Enhancing Productivity and Decision-Making,” where he reframed artificial intelligence not as automation, but as cognitive partnership. His work examines how humans and intelligent systems can intentionally distribute cognitive responsibility while preserving human agency. This framework has been recognized for its clarity in explaining productivity acceleration and hybrid decision-making models.

Olayiwola holds a Master’s degree in Information Technology, graduating in the top five percent of his class, with research focused on machine learning–based malware detection. His broader publications span AI in finance, cybersecurity, federated learning, and predictive modeling for risk management. This combination of production engineering and academic inquiry enables him to translate theoretical insight into secure, deployable, and economically sound systems.

An AWS Certified Solutions Architect and Developer, he is committed to building architectures that are secure by design, resilient under pressure, and optimized for real-world constraints. He mentors engineers, contributes to technical scholarship, and speaks on system design, fintech infrastructure, and the evolving discipline of human–AI collaborative intelligence.

For Olayiwola, technology is not only about writing code. It is about designing systems that expand human capability while preserving judgment, responsibility, and trust.

Helen Millar is a speaker, emotional intelligence consultant and transformation coach helping leaders, founders and organisations build the inner capacity to thrive in the age of AI.

With nearly two decades of international coaching experience, an award-winning acting career and a profound personal healing journey, Helen brings rare depth to conversations about leadership, change, resilience and human potential. Her work sits at the intersection of emotional fitness, conscious leadership, communication, psychology, money, faith and strategy.

Helen is a regular speaker at Oxford, Cambridge and London Business Schools, has been featured on the Discovery Channel across three continents, and is the founder of Helen Millar, Hearty.Company and Heart Healer®. Through Hearty, her consultancy brand, she works with organisations and executive teams on emotional intelligence, leadership presence and the human skills AI cannot replace.

Her signature keynote, Emotional Fitness is the Leadership Edge in the Age of AI, explores why the future will not belong to the most intelligent machines alone, but to the most emotionally intelligent leaders. As technology accelerates, leaders need more than strategy, systems and skills. They need nervous system capacity, discernment, authenticity, relational intelligence and the ability to meet uncertainty without collapse or control.

Helen also speaks powerfully on healing your relationship with money, self-worth and change, particularly for female founders, creatives and high-achieving professionals whose external success has outpaced their internal stability. Having transformed her own life from self-sabotage, ill health and financial scarcity into a thriving portfolio of meaningful work, property, investment and global impact, Helen does not speak about transformation as theory. She has lived it.

Her approach combines emotional intelligence, psychological insight, spiritual wisdom and grounded business acumen through her Head to Heart Living and Head to Heart Leadership frameworks. The result is work that is intelligent, human, practical and deeply transformational.

Helen’s talks are ideal for organisations, leadership events, women’s leadership programmes, founder communities, wellbeing conferences and future-of-work conversations seeking a speaker who can bring emotional depth, commercial relevance and a powerful human perspective to the age of AI.
