Step into a dynamic, hands-on AI learning experience created exclusively for OBOT members – specifically designed for business leaders who want practical tools they can apply immediately, not abstract theory.
This AI session features interactive Speed Learning Stations, each focused on a key business need aligned with real-world AI tools and applications. Participants are guided through all four stations, with each stop offering a focused mini-presentation, discussion, and actionable takeaways.
To keep the energy high and maximize engagement, each participant receives a unique station order. This rotation encourages meaningful networking and ensures you connect with a range of fellow OBOT members while learning alongside peers that face similar challenges.
Learning Stations:
Understanding Generative AI and LLMs: What they are, how they work, and how businesses are using them today to boost productivity.
Business Planning: How to align AI tools with your goals and choose what you need to reach them.
Operational Excellence: AI tools that improve systems, efficiency, workflows, and day-to-day operations.
Funding: How AI can support funding strategies, grant writing, investment readiness, and growth planning.
The workshop will close with a keynote from Gio Pizzoferrato, Chief Digital and Technology Officer, BDO Canada, on the topic of data sovereignty and security.
As a members-only experience, AI Speed Learning offers a focused environment to learn, connect, and grow. You’ll leave with new connections, practical insights, and a clear understanding of how AI can support your organization today.
