Why This Boardroom
You know the pattern if you’ve sat in a business group before. Different stages, drifting agendas, an occasional guest speaker. Building an AI-first MSP takes more. Your decisions on AI adoption, service architecture, automation investment, and valuation strategy compound. Get them right and they build on each other. The AI Mastermind Boardroom is an invite-only community for MSP entrepreneurs building toward Managed Intelligence Providers (MIPs).
Invite-only. Ten executives per boardroom, building alongside operators facing the same decisions. Quarterly, one day in-person at ITBD headquarters in New Jersey. Monthly accountability calls in between.
THREE CORE PILLARS
Every boardroom session is structured around three focus areas that compound over time.
Scale through AI without letting delivery quality or margins slip.
Build toward MIP-level discipline. Buyers pay premiums for MSPs that offer that level of visibility.
Lead your team and position your MSP as the market shifts around you.
TWO TIERS
Each boardroom is organized by revenue stage so the conversations are relevant to where you are, not where someone else is.
THE EXPERIENCE
The quarterly sessions set direction. Monthly calls keep execution honest. You’ll work through the commitments you made in person, share what’s moved and what’s stuck, and pressure-test upcoming decisions before you make them, not after.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Setting the strategic direction for how AI shapes your MSP's future, competitive positioning, and long-term value.
Controlling AI investment, resource allocation, and the organizational decisions that come with building a next-generation MSP.
Responsible for making AI strategy work inside the business, from service delivery to margins to team structure.
Membership is invite-only. Every applicant is reviewed to make sure the cohort remains focused, relevant, and high-trust.

The AI Accelerator sessions were practical and to the point. I left with a better framework for thinking about AI and a few things I can put to work right away.

Most peer groups bring together operators at different stages with general business topics on the agenda. The AI Mastermind Boardroom is organized by revenue tier, focused specifically on AI strategy and MSP-to-MIP transition, and limited to 10 executives per boardroom. The conversations are tighter and more relevant because the group is built that way intentionally.
Attendance matters here. Members are expected to be present. If a conflict arises, reach out to the boardroom coordinator. Consistent absence affects the entire group, so it’s a factor in ongoing membership.
No. The AI Mastermind Boardroom is open to any qualified MSP founder or executive who meets the criteria. ITBD clients and non-clients are welcome to apply.
