Aaron Levie, CEO and co-founder of Box, is scheduled to speak at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, addressing topics including corporate invention, the impact of artificial intelligence on enterprise software, and strategies for business evolution. The conference is set to take place from October 27 to 29 at Moscone West in San Francisco, California.
Levie's appearance on the Disrupt Stage is slated to include a discussion on the realities of invention within a public company framework, according to the official event agenda. He is also expected to offer his perspective on how AI is transforming, and in some areas, not transforming, the enterprise software landscape. A key theme of his talk will center on the necessity of continuous critical evaluation in business, even of established concepts.
Box, a cloud collaboration platform, was established before "the cloud" became a widespread industry term. The company's longevity and ability to adapt have allowed it to navigate a competitive market that saw numerous early entrants fail to scale, sources familiar with the company's history noted. Levie’s role as both a visionary founder and a long-term public company CEO provides a distinct vantage point on the evolution of enterprise technology.
His session is anticipated to cover significant strategic shifts, unexpected market developments, and the leadership mindset required for sustained evolution within a rapidly advancing technological environment. The discussion will delve into the complexities of building enduring ventures, encompassing product development, corporate culture, strategic planning, and leadership philosophy, according to event organizers.
TechCrunch Disrupt 2025 is expected to host over 10,000 founders, venture capitalists, and innovators. Attendees interested in registering for the event can secure their participation, with early registration savings available until September 26.
