About this Event
AI Weekend at Betacowork Brussels
Most AI events send you home with notes. This one sends you home with something that runs.
You come on Saturday morning with a laptop and one real problem from your business. You spend the weekend building an answer to it, in a room with other entrepreneurs and with coaches in the room the whole time. On Sunday afternoon you show what you made.
Three build tracks
Pick one when you register. You can switch on the day.
1. Your content machine Produce and publish content with AI that sounds like you, not like everyone else. From an idea to something actually posted. No technical background needed.
2. Your own working assistant Build an assistant that takes over a task you keep doing by hand, on your own data and your own machine.
3. DIY, build with peers No session and no one walking you through it. You start building on Saturday morning with the other people in the room, and there is help when you get stuck.
How the weekend runs
Saturday 26 September, 09:00 to 17:30 Breakfast, then a session with Toon Vanagt where you put your whole business on one page in twenty questions. The canvas pushes back on every assumption you make. After that, Betacowork founders talk about what paid off and what burned time and money. From 13:30 you pick your track and start building, and the rest of the afternoon is yours. Drinks and open conversation at 17:30.
Sunday 27 September, 09:00 to 17:30 Build time continues in all three tracks, with the coaches moving between the rooms. The afternoon is for finishing touches and getting your thing to actually run. At 15:30 everyone shows what they built and pitches the ideas they want to put in front of the room.
