A live, practical AI day led by serial tech entrepreneur Richard Scott. Last year, AI answered questions. This year, it gets the work done.

Last year, AI answered questions. This year, it gets the work done.

That shift happened in months, not years. Until now, building any kind of digital capability meant a technical team and a language you probably didn't understand. The shift with AI is that the programming language is now plain English. The power belongs to the people inside your business who can explain what good looks like, and judge whether what comes back is right.

Nobody knows your business like your people do. That has just become your biggest advantage. And the gap between the businesses that have started and those still waiting to see widens every month.

Your host, and what he believes

Richard Scott is a serial entrepreneur, technologist and exited tech founder who has built through every wave of digital technology, from mobile apps before the iPhone to AI. Through Evolvity, he now helps businesses adopt AI in a way that puts people first. What he'll bring to the day is less a CV than a set of convictions, earned the hard way:

Your domain expertise is your single biggest asset. AI has read almost everything in the public domain and almost nothing inside your business. The people who know the work, the customers and the standards are the ones who make it valuable.

Teaching AI what good looks like is the new skill. Explain the job, show it your standards, and judge whether what comes back is right. That's how AI starts to know your business.

AI is not software. It's the first general-purpose technology of its kind. Sometimes it's incredibly good, and sometimes it's confidently wrong. You are the one who can tell the difference.

Empowerment, not imposition. Technology works best when it respects the people closest to the problem. AI should be shaped by your people, not done to them.

"One of the standout presentations at our Northern Ireland conference. His message was clear: the future belongs to organisations that combine human judgement with AI."

Brian Reid, Chair, Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, Northern Ireland

From answering questions to doing work

Most businesses are still at stage one: good answers, but the work still lands back on your desk. Wherever you are on your AI journey, you're already ahead of the people who haven't started. Now it's time to take it further. The more AI can do, the more your judgement matters. At every stage, you stay in charge.

Why attend

The rules have changed. AI now does work, not just answers, and the businesses that know this are pulling ahead.

Your competitor may already be ahead. Waiting to see is no longer the safe option.

Your expertise is the advantage. The person who knows the job can now build for the job.

You'll watch it happen, live. Every session ends with a demonstration on real business problems.

It will mean something for your business. Faster quotes, better bids, reports that write themselves, knowledge that stops living in one person's head.

You'll go home with a plan and a partner. You leave knowing what to do first, with a one-to-one follow-up for your company.Last year, AI answered questions. This year, it gets the work done.
