You Are the Intelligence in Your Business. Time to Make AI Work for You. 2027 AI Strategy: Working Roundtable Session. (December 10, 2026)

Thu, 10 Dec 2026 17:00:00 GMT

Most businesses aren't short on AI tools. The problem is that they don't know where AI actually fits in their business, or what to simplify before they add it. Many businesses end up integrating AI backwards, layering new tools on top of old processes and founder bottlenecks. This working roundtable helps consultants and business owners step back and map the business they want to build in 2027. Participants will look at where too much still depends on them, cut what isn't adding value, and find where AI, systems and automation can create real gains in time, profit and revenue. Participants will receive a short pre-session playbook to get a head start and to capture their own ideas, opportunities and next steps.
