AI For Purpose: Building Technology That Actually Matters
January 28 @ 6:15 pm - 9:15 pm

FREE MEMBER LED EVENT
Join us at Lexus Bristol for an essential conversation with our AI Thought Leader and co-CEO, Matt Wicks, about moving beyond the AI hype cycle to create technology that delivers real-world impact. In “AI For Purpose: Building Technology That Actually Matters,” we’ll explore a practical, human-centric framework for implementing AI solutions that solve genuine problems and empower people rather than simply implementing technology for its own sake.
This session cuts through the noise to demystify AI tools and provides a clear, actionable four-step framework for building AI applications that create positive value. Through real-world case studies spanning accessibility, scientific discovery, and environmental conservation, you’ll see how organisations are already applying these principles to generate meaningful impact.
Whether you run your own business, work in a small company or a large organisation, or are simply curious about AI, you’ll leave with concrete strategies to evaluate and guide AI initiatives toward creating genuine value for the people and communities they serve.
