Creative AI for 2026 (Content & Marketing)

Let’s get some sharing going for 2026!

In this session we’ll get started with a short presentation by Robert Cooper on his favorite practical uses for AI as a marketing agency owner who leverages it daily for himself and his clients.

Following his session we’ll open the floor to hear everyone else’s top tips, hacks and processes for getting the most out of AI.

Rob will discuss the following topics:

AI image generation

  • How to get images just how you want them.
  • How to create a “brand image engine to consistently produce “on brand” images for your company.

Writing with AI

  • Top tools and techniques for professional-level writing.
  • How to make your AI writing truly “yours.”

Automation for Dummies

  • Getting AI to show you how to integrate AI & Automation.

Sharing is Caring

  • How to share AI processes with your team (ideally while ensuring consistency and control).



Feel free to grab a bite at the Fort Cafe, located on site.
