AI Fundamentals | Startup Fundamentals

New to AI, or unsure what it really means for your startup? This session is built for you. In 90 minutes, you'll get a plain-language look at how AI is changing what it takes to start and build a company — and where it can help or hurt you.

We'll cover:

• Why AI makes it easier than ever to build — and easier than ever to be copied
• How competition is changing: rivals, platforms, and even your own customers
• Why product-market fit has to be earned again and again
• What can't be copied: trust, relationships, expertise, and your story as a founder

This isn't a talk-at-you lecture — this is an interactive session, and every question is welcome, from "how non-technical founders should think of leveraging vibe-coding" to the hard strategy stuff.

Who it's for:

Idea-stage and early-stage founders, technical or not. No prerequisites — the Lean Canvas and Customer Discovery workshops pair well with it.
