Justification Letter

Subject: Approval request: Thesis: 2027 on Nov 5 ($1,300)

Hi [Manager],

I’m requesting approval to attend Thesis: 2027 on Thursday, Nov 5, 2026, at Pioneer Works in Brooklyn. It’s a one-day conference from Every about the future of work and AI.

As a [your role] at [your company], I expect to bring back practical ideas for [specific project or initiative]. I’m especially interested in:

• How other teams use AI to work more efficiently and where human judgment remains most valuable.
• Workshops and industry sessions relevant to [specific team or business goal].
• Tools, workflows, and processes we can test in our own work.
• Conversations with leaders, operators, and AI practitioners facing similar challenges.

The current ticket package costs $1,300. I’d be out of the office for one day.

Why this conference

Thesis brings together 400 builders, operators, and executives working at the edge of AI for live workshops and industry-specific breakout sessions. I expect to leave with workflows we can test immediately and ideas I can share with the wider team.

I’d meet AI practitioners, founders, and executives solving similar problems, making the event relevant to both our work and my professional network.

Within a week of the event, I’ll circulate a short written report covering three ideas worth testing, implications for our growth roadmap, and people worth following up with.
