About this Event

AI Strategy: Should You Build or Buy Your AI Solutions

This event is intended for small and medium-sized business owners that are looking for support with their AI strategy. Participants will learn what it means to build an internal AI solution and what AI solutions being offered today from vendors are mature enough to actually drive impact in your business. Participants will learn how to apply a strategic decision making rubric to determine whether they should invest resources in building their AI solutions versus buying a solution from an external vendor.

This talk is sponsored by Red Kaleidoscope, a Florida 501(c)(3) not for profit organization whose mission is to educate leaders and youth in AI to transform communities from the ground up. We create cascading change by equipping every generation with the knowledge to shape our shared technological future.
