AI & Tech Lab for Small Business

AI is changing the way we do business—and you don’t have to be a tech expert to use it. Join Martindale Brightwood CDC’s Empowered Business Solutions for the AI & Tech Lab, a hands-on, interactive workshop created for entrepreneurs and small business owners who want to better understand how AI and technology can support their business. Facilitated by Michael Dunbar of Meliora Software Consulting, this session will take AI beyond the buzzwords and focus on practical ways you can put technology to work. During the lab, you’ll have an opportunity to: • Explore AI and technology tools that can support your business • Learn practical ways to save time and work more efficiently • Discover how technology can improve everyday business processes • Ask questions and explore tools alongside other entrepreneurs • Leave with ideas you can begin putting into action No tech background required. Whether you’re already experimenting with AI or wondering where to start, come ready to learn, explore, and ask questions. Please bring your laptop or tablet. This is a hands-on workshop, not a class. You’ll have the opportunity to explore the tools, follow along, and put what you’re learning into practice in real time. No tech background is required.
