Build with AI - Live Workshop
An experience for a select group of 20 forward-thinking leaders to explore what AI can truly build inside a business.
In a guided and relaxed setting, you’ll use Claude (an AI tool) to create a working solution, something relevant to your business or even your personal life.
No coding. No jargon. No pressure.
Just a chance to properly explore what AI can do when you actually sit down and use it.
What makes this different
It’s hands-on — you won’t just listen, you’ll build
It’s practical — you’ll work on something relevant to you
It’s small — limited to 20 people for a better experience
It’s honest — we’ll show both what AI does well and where it still falls short
What you’ll leave with
A working solution (e.g. app, tool, or automated process)
A much clearer understanding of how AI can be applied in your world
Confidence to explore ideas faster without relying on large teams
Perspective on what should (and shouldn’t) be trusted with AI
The experience
This session is designed to feel engaging, practical, and genuinely enjoyable.
You’ll be guided step-by-step to:
choose an existing broken process, manual admin task, messy spreadsheet or an idea (business or personal) - we can help provide inspiration
shape it into something simple and useful
build a working prototype using AI
test, tweak and improve it
share what you’ve created with the group
No one is expected to be technical.
Curiosity is far more important.

Prerequisites
A Claude Pro subscription (£15/month) is required to be installed on your own laptop (or with your set up in advance.
Think about a simple app to build either for fun or related to your business that you would like to build - don't make it too complicated. We will also have sample ideas to work on for inspiration.
Who this is for
Forward-thinking business owners and directors
Senior leaders and decision-makers
Operators and problem-solvers
Anyone curious about what AI can actually do
No technical experience required.
Important note
This is about rapid prototyping, not production software.
You’ll create something real and usable, but not a fully secure or scalable system.
Understanding that distinction is part of the session.
This is an event limited to 20 attendees.
