Looking Back at the 4 part AI workshops
If you didnt attend you really missed out
The final session of Raj Goodman’s four part AI workshop wrapped up on Monday, and what a journey it has been. Raj delivered something truly outstanding. Each session opened my eyes a little more to what AI already is, where it is heading, and how it can be used in our businesses today. I am very glad I committed to all four sessions because there was so much to take in. Raj went deep, yet it is clear we are only scratching the surface of what this technology can do.
What stood out for me was the clarity he brought to a subject that many of us still see as overwhelming. He broke it down in a way that felt practical, real, and relevant to the challenges we face as entrepreneurs. From streamlining operations and improving customer experience to building smarter systems that save time and money, he showed us why AI is no longer optional. It is here to stay. There is no hiding from it. We need to embrace it and use it properly so it becomes a genuine advantage rather than something that passes us by. For those who missed this series, you genuinely missed something special. I would strongly encourage everyone in EO to start exploring AI and to make the most of any future AI events that come up. If this series is anything to go by, the learning opportunities ahead are going to be powerful.
A big thank you to Raj and oour learning chair (Karim for last yrs events and Nihal for this yrs) for giving us so much value. I left each session inspired, curious, and motivated to act.
