Harnessing AI for business innovation
Helene Guillaume Pabis brings a rare combination of hands-on AI expertise, entrepreneurship and commercial thinking to the stage. Her experience spans finance, global AI consulting and building a technology company from concept to successful exit, giving her a practical perspective on what innovation demands when ideas meet real-world business challenges.
Before becoming an entrepreneur, Helene worked as a quantitative analyst in a hedge fund and consulted on artificial intelligence for global enterprises, including Fannie Mae. These experiences developed her understanding of data, technology and complex business environments while giving her insight into how established organizations approach technological transformation.
Her keynotes make AI relevant to the decisions organizations are facing today. Rather than treating artificial intelligence as an abstract technological development, Helene explores how businesses can use it to innovate, adapt and create opportunities for sustainable growth. Audiences leave with a clearer understanding of how technological change can translate into practical business action.
From Wild.AI to acquisition
As the founder of Wild.AI, Helene Guillaume Pabis transformed an ambitious idea into a company operating at the intersection of artificial intelligence, longevity, sports and femtech. She scaled the business before Wild.AI was acquired by Zepp Health (NYSE: ZEPP) in 2025.
That journey gives Helene first-hand experience of the realities behind entrepreneurship: identifying opportunities, creating something new, building a brand, navigating uncertainty and maintaining momentum as a company grows. She speaks from experience about what happens between the original idea and the outcome everyone sees.
For leaders, founders and organizations, Helene’s entrepreneurial journey provides an engaging framework for exploring innovation and growth. She connects her experiences building Wild.AI with broader lessons about leadership, decision-making and the ability to execute when circumstances continue to change.
Her perspective is particularly relevant for businesses that want to move beyond talking about innovation and start creating the conditions where new ideas can develop, scale and generate tangible value.
A high-performance mindset
Helene’s approach to business is also shaped by life as a competitive athlete. She competes across triathlon, ultra-trail running, skiing and surfing – disciplines where preparation, resilience and the ability to perform under pressure matter.
She brings these experiences into her keynotes to explore the connection between athletic performance and business leadership. Endurance sports provide a powerful lens for understanding discipline, adaptability and the mental and physical strength required to continue moving towards a goal when conditions become demanding.
Helene translates that high-performance mindset into a business context without losing sight of practical application. Her talks challenge audiences to consider how they approach pressure, setbacks, ambition and sustained performance, whether they are leading a company, developing a team or pursuing an entrepreneurial idea.
Leadership, branding and growth
Building an innovative company requires more than technology. It demands leadership, communication, positioning and the ability to create momentum around an idea. Helene draws on her experience across entrepreneurship, AI and business to address these interconnected challenges.
Her keynotes can explore:
- How organizations can harness AI to support meaningful business innovation
- Lessons from scaling a company from concept through to acquisition
- Entrepreneurial leadership in fast-changing and competitive environments
- Resilience, discipline and peak performance inspired by endurance sports
- Personal branding and the role it plays in entrepreneurship and leadership
- Building the mindset and capabilities needed to adapt and pursue sustainable growth
By connecting these themes, Helene gives audiences a broader understanding of what it takes to innovate successfully. Technology may create opportunities, but leadership, execution and adaptability determine what organizations do with them.
