Denver French Tech TALK
Join us for a talk about Chatbots and AI agents, and you can use them to deliver better customer experiences.
This session will be led by Elina Roetnyck, who is a global customer operations leader with 12+ years of experience scaling support for high-growth tech startups, including BlaBlaCar and YC-backed Extern.
Most companies have experimented with chatbots. But few have AI systems that actively solve problems, orchestrate workflows, and improve customer outcomes.
The session will explore how startups and small businesses can start with basic automation and then move toward agentic AI systems that drive satisfaction, retention, and operational efficiency.
Participants will learn:
• The difference between chatbot automation and agentic AI systems
• Where AI has the highest impact on customer experience
• How to design AI workflows that augment teams instead of replacing them
• A practical roadmap for implementing AI in a startup environment
Ideal for founders, operators, and leaders seeking practical AI adoption strategies.
