Only 3% of Fortune 500 executives list AI expertise on their LinkedIn profiles, according to new research featured in Fast Company. This gap isn’t just academic, it’s a major barrier to scaling AI effectively across the enterprise.

Board of Innovation (BOI), a HauerX Holdings portfolio partner, is addressing this challenge head-on. Through its AI fluency programs, strategic AI consulting, and hands-on enterprise innovation work, BOI equips leadership teams with the understanding and frameworks needed to turn AI from hype into tangible impact.

Why it matters:
Without executive-level AI fluency, organizations risk falling into pilot purgatory or misaligned investments. BOI’s work with global brands is helping close this leadership gap by embedding AI into strategy, not just IT.
