The Discovery Foundation AI Business Accelerator: Stream 1 Workshop
Stream 1 of the The Discovery Foundation AI Business Accelerator supports pre-revenue and early-stage BC technology and tech-enabled companies to build a strong foundation in AI.
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly reshaping how startups operate, yet determining where to begin can feel overwhelming. Without a clear adoption roadmap, founders risk wasting valuable time and resources chasing trendy tools that fail to align with their core business goals.
Join us for a hands-on workshop tailored specifically for pre-revenue and early-stage BC technology and tech-enabled ventures. We will break down the complexity of artificial intelligence and guide you in building a practical, high-impact AI implementation plan that drives measurable traction and scalable growth.
Registration in this 1-Day Workshop is free. However, we have a limited number of mentorship hours with an AI business expert that will be available following the workshop. If you are interested in also applying for mentorship, please indicate this in the event registration when prompted.
