Join Our Community of Practice
Raj Muthupandiyan of Arivu LLC and I are thrilled to announce that we are co-authoring a new book. Our mission is clear: we aim to help small- and mid-size businesses apply AI in practical, real-world ways.
The Focus of Our Book
Not theory.
Not hype.
But the everyday wins that actually move a business forward.
We believe that AI can transform businesses, but only when it is applied effectively. This book will provide actionable insights and strategies that can be implemented right away.
Building a Community of Practice
Alongside the book, we are forming an invite-only Community of Practice. This community will bring together leaders across various sectors who are focused on deploying AI in real SMB environments. Our goals are simple yet impactful:
Share real use cases: We will discuss what worked and what didn’t in our AI implementations.
Navigate adoption challenges: Together, we will tackle the hurdles that come with adopting new technologies.
Build a trusted space: This community will be a collaborative environment where members can experiment and learn from each other.
Elevate applied AI: We aim to focus on practical applications rather than noise and speculation.
What to Expect
In early January, we will share more details about the book's structure, the interviews we are scheduling, and how the community can contribute. If you are interested in participating, please provide your contact information below:
Why This Matters
In today's fast-paced business environment, understanding how to leverage AI is crucial. Many small- and mid-size businesses struggle with this. Our initiative aims to bridge that gap. By sharing knowledge and experiences, we can empower businesses to harness AI effectively.
The Future of AI in SMBs
The potential for AI in small- and mid-size businesses is immense. From automating routine tasks to enhancing customer experiences, the applications are vast. However, the journey can be daunting. Our community will provide the support needed to navigate this landscape.
