Best for
Mixed business audiences · business associations · chamber events
Why it lands
Most owners are stuck at AI-Assisted (ChatGPT in browsers) and don't know the next step. This talk shows the three-stage maturity ladder and the discipline that prevents costly mistakes.
Best for
Technical audiences · CTO forums · IT leadership groups
Why it lands
Gartner says 30% of generative AI projects are abandoned at PoC by end of 2025. This talk explains why — and the seven-layer architecture pattern that every successful enterprise AI deployment shares.
Best for
SMB owner audiences · founder communities · operations leaders
Why it lands
Replaces "AI transformation" with something doable. Start with one workflow. Prove its ROI. Add the next. The compounding curve makes the case for itself.
Best for
Regulated-industry audiences · healthcare · legal · financial services
Why it lands
Most SMB governance content is written for Fortune 500s. This talk makes governance practical for a $5M business — confidence scoring, audit trails, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, all in plain English.
Best for
Owner/CEO audiences · executive forums
Why it lands
Cuts through the "should I use ChatGPT?" confusion by separating what AI does for the owner, for the company, and what the ecosystem provides.
Best for
General business audiences · introductory sessions
Why it lands
The accessible entry point. Names the limits of consumer AI tools, introduces the concept of a Business Brain, and shows what changes when AI connects to your existing systems.

Roopak Gupta
New Brunswick, NJ
Roopak Gupta is the Founder & CEO of Hureka Technologies and the architect of Hureka AI — the AI practice serving mid-market businesses across 12 industries.
He spent 18 years in enterprise leadership at Johnson & Johnson before earning his Columbia Business School MBA and founding Hureka Technologies in 2013. Over the past 12+ years, his team has shipped hundreds of projects for businesses ranging from $5M startups to large healthcare systems.
In 2024, as AI began reshaping every industry, Roopak focused Hureka's practice on a single mission: helping mid-market businesses move from AI-Assisted to AI-Native — calculated, cautious, one Lego block at a time. The methodology is built on 50+ authoritative sources, mapped against the convergent enterprise AI architecture, and tested across real client deployments.
He is based in New Brunswick, NJ, and speaks regularly at NJBIA, NJ Innovation Institute, and industry forums across the tri-state region.
