Building what comes next in B2B media and events.

I’m Terry O’Dwyer — founder, advisor, and investor navigating my second act after exiting a global B2B events business (LSX, acquired by Informa).

I spend my time building, backing, and bringing together bold thinkers reshaping the future of B2B events, media, content, and community.

Currently building AiBL, a practical media and events platform that helps scale-up and mid-market leaders cut through AI hype and turn it into real business outcomes.
