What do these topics have in common? Come find out!About this EventWhat's on TapThe Brewers are the hottest team in baseball. No one thought they'd play this well. Not again. Not after last season. Not a chance!It shouldn't be possible. The Brewers have one of the lowest payrolls in the league. Almost none of their players are household names. Nearly last in the league in home runs. Yet, somehow, the Brewers keep winning anyway.Their success has some people asking "How are they doing this?" and others asking "How do they keep doing this?"We're asking, "Their success has some people asking "How are they doing this?" and others asking "How do they keep doing this?" It isn't tools. It isn't money. So what's their secret sauce? Is it magic, luck, or something different?And is there something we can learn from the Brewers' success?Many organizations are chasing that same kind of success with their AI initiatives, and the organizations getting real results from AI right now aren't the ones with the biggest budgets or the flashiest tools.This month, we're focusing on the fundamentals. We'll look at five pillars that create successful AI initiatives.The night kicks off at 5PM with casual networking and catering by Wonderland Cafe, followed by a look at the Brewers and what their success can teach us about building a foundation that's built for success.From there, our guest speaker Dana Echert of INSPIRE shares her journey — why she left a career in HR to build a people-first AI consulting practice, and what she's learned about where AI strategy falls apart.Next, a we'll reflect on the pivotal moments that shaped us, and the people who shaped us along the way.Then, we'll meet with our expert panel: Dana, Steve Glynn of Experience Milwaukee and Xorbix, Robb Richardson of NetForward, and one more guest to be announced to talk about the five pillars for AI success, taking your questions along the way.We'll close with an AI readiness self-assessment and intentional networking, where we'll split off into groups, matched with others who have found success where we have struggled, who are struggling where we have been successful. We'll use this time to collaborate and learn from each other. Come with a problem to solve. Learn from someone whose solved it!As a bonus treat, we'll have two performances by local musician Father Sky throughout the night.Want to support PINTS?

We believe embracing technology and innovation, achieving business success, ensuring community protection, and improving quality of life do not have to be competing priorities.Technology should make life better. We can use technology to create the future we want. Together we can decide how technology and innovation will impact our region. Lets build a better future, starting right here in Milwaukee!Agenda🕑: 06:01 PM - 06:30 PMMeet and Greet🕑: 06:30 PM - 06:35 PMPINTS IntroductionHost: Steb Scheele🕑: 06:35 PM - 08:20 PMJoe Poeschl + Community DiscussionsHost: Joe Poeschl🕑: 08:20 PM - 09:00 PMIntentional Networking🕑: 08:15 PM - 08:20 PMClosing Remarks - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/milwaukee/pints-october-we-win-with-people-fundamentals-for-ai-success/100002000776659849 - **Event Categories**: music, entertainment, meet-and-greet, meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 50, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Milwaukee - **state**: WI - **country**: United States - **location**: Puddler's Hall | Bay View’s Historic Tavern - **lat**: 42.9987632 - **long**: -87.89304 - **full address**: Puddler's Hall | Bay View’s Historic Tavern, 2461 South Saint Clair Street, Milwaukee, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: PINTS October | We Win with People: Fundamentals for AI Success - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/a0ace29922b4b102d8bd906806df6f947456f0997cf2c2b1025cd6b0a227a681-rimg-w1200-h800-dcd87818-gmir.jpg?v=1789349463 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is PINTS October | We Win with People: Fundamentals for AI Success being held? - **A:** PINTS October | We Win with People: Fundamentals for AI Success takes place on Tue, 13 Oct, 2026 at 05:00 pm to Tue, 13 Oct, 2026 at 09:00 pm at Puddler's Hall | Bay View s Historic Tavern, 2461 South Saint Clair Street, Milwaukee, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing PINTS October | We Win with People: Fundamentals for AI Success? - **A:** PINTS October | We Win with People: Fundamentals for AI Success is organized by NetForward Corp.. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
