About this Event
AI is everywhere - but knowing how to actually use it in your business is what makes the difference.
This free, hands-on workshop is designed for women in business who want to understand AI properly, without jargon or overwhelm. We’re stripping it back to basics and focusing on how AI can genuinely support your day-to-day work.
Hosted by Martin Sandhu, founder of Nuom & Built in Notts, alongside Leah ter Voorde, founder of The Startup Social, this session will guide you through:
• Which AI platforms are best suited to different areas of your business.
• What types of AI tools work best for content, admin, planning and operations.
• How to use AI effectively, ethically and confidently.
• Practical ways to make AI a tool that works with your business - not against it.
This is a practical workshop, where you'll be encouraged to try things out, ask questions and leave with a clearer understanding of how AI can save you time, support your ideas and fit your business at its current stage.
Perfect for:
• Self-employed women and small business owners.
• Early stage founders and startups/side hustles.
• Women curious about AI but unsure where to start.
Come as you are, bring your laptop if you can, and leave feeling empowered to use AI in a way that feels aligned, useful and manageable.
