Revolutionary Major League Baseball Executive to Deliver Insights on Being Disruptive and Relevant
In business, the maxim “Adapt or Die” has never been more prevalent than today. With the influx of artificial intelligence technologies revamping or, in some cases, eliminating entire industries in the economy, keeping up with the latest trends is paramount.
The same could be said about sports, as in the case of Billy Beane, the innovative baseball executive for the Oakland Athletics, whose unorthodox approach to baseball management, particularly through the use of sabermetrics, a data-driven method for evaluating players, revolutionized the sport.
As the Athletics’ GM, he implemented strategies to build competitive teams despite a limited payroll, challenging traditional scouting methods. His approach was popularized in the book “Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game” by Michael Lewis and the subsequent 2011 film "Moneyball", where Brad Pitt portrayed him. Beane’s strategies influenced a broader shift in how MLB teams evaluate talent, emphasizing statistical analysis over intuition.
He has been tapped as the keynote speaker for Supio Summit. This AI-powered legal event brings together personal injury leaders, tech innovators, and Thomson Reuters for a high-impact afternoon of insights, panels, and live demos. The namesake for the event, Supio, is a leading AI platform transforming how personal injury and mass tort law firms build stronger cases with efficiency, processing complex case materials in record time with the backing of legal experts who are human verified.

The event will take place at Thomson Reuters headquarters in New York City on September 18, and Beane will deliver the closing remarks, sharing lessons on strategy, disruption, and high-impact decision making.
In a highly competitive market, with well-funded defense firms, plaintiff firms today face a choice: stick with legacy processes or find more innovative ways to win using the resources they already have.
Beane’s keynote will address the decision of how to rethink value, uncover leverage in overlooked places, and compete without needing more headcount or bigger budgets.
