In this Talks with Teads episode, Dominic Ng, Chief Product & Data Officer at Horizon, joins Katie Secret, EVP of Marketing at Teads, live from POSSIBLE 2025 to explore how brands can move faster, work smarter, and build AI into the core of their operations.
Embedding AI Into the Day-to-Day
For Dominic, it starts with fundamentals. He explains that Horizon’s approach is twofold: foundational AI education followed by hands-on application. “It’ll be built into the fabric of their day-to-day activities,” he says. Through the Blue Platform, Horizon is working to ensure AI becomes second nature across teams—not a side initiative, but a deeply integrated part of how people work, plan, and execute.
Redefining the Innovation Timeline
One of the most memorable takeaways from the conversation is Horizon’s adoption of a six-week innovation cycle for the Blue Platform—from ideation to execution. “We don’t have the luxury of long-distance product roadmaps anymore,” Dominic notes. With AI reshaping what’s possible, velocity becomes a competitive advantage. For product teams, that means working in tighter sprints, iterating quickly, and keeping pace with the market.
Planning Ahead, Staying Agile
Even with a robust roadmap, Dominic emphasizes the need for flexibility. “We’re keeping an eye on the broader market because anything can happen.” In the fast-moving world of AI, the ability to adapt quickly is just as critical as having a plan. Horizon’s model balances structured innovation with real-time responsiveness—giving teams the confidence to execute and the agility to pivot.
