Grant Yourself More Time: AI and the Grant Life Cycle
About this Event
Grant Yourself More Time: AI and the Grant Life Cycle
Where does AI actually fit in grant work, and once it saves your team time, what will you do with it?
Join the Grant Professionals Network of Northeast Indiana (GPN) and Petra Solutions for a free day of practical learning, conversation, and celebration, built around GPN's 2nd annual Season's Grantings holiday party.
About Season's Grantings
Season's Grantings is the annual carry-in and festive gathering for the Grant Professionals Network of Northeast Indiana. It's an informal celebration to mark the end of the year, reflect on what the network has accomplished together, and build connection among local grant practitioners. The atmosphere is relaxed by design: networking, reflection, and celebration, not a formal presentation. Bring a dish or snack to share if you'd like, or request a provided lunch when you register.
Who should attend
Grant writers, development and program staff, executive directors, board members, independent grant consultants, and anyone moving into grant work. No AI experience needed.
