Practical AI for Small Business
AI is no longer just a tech trend — it's quickly becoming a competitive advantage. The question is whether your business will be AI-ready for the busy fall season ahead.
Join longtime Tribeca resident and small-business advocate Bill Tsapalas for a practical, no-hype conversation about how AI can help small businesses save time, brainstorm new opportunities, solve problems faster, and gain access to capabilities that were once only available to large companies. No technical background required.
