# Event Details

- **Event Name**: AI for Small Business Owners:  Learn, Practice & Get Work Done
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 30 Sep, 2026 at 05:30 pm – Wed, 30 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Business Bridge's AI Lab is back for round three:  a monthly gathering where local business professionals learn one useful AI tool, prompt, or trick, then put it to work on their own projects.

This month, we're pointing AI at your inbox, and we're doing it safely.  We'll show you how to get Claude or ChatGPT to sort what matters, flag what needs a reply, and draft responses, without handing over private information about you or your clients.  You'll learn how to rein it in when it gets a little too creative, and why you approve every action that has real consequences.  No one's AI will be sending a reply-all with its honest thoughts on the office potluck.

You stay in charge.  The robot does the sorting.

It's not a 90-minute lecture from someone who claims to have cracked the entire artificial-intelligence code.  It's part mini-class, part co-working session, and part group experiment, now in its third month of highly scientific testing:  laptops, business professionals, and a LaCroix collection that shows no signs of slowing down.

Bring your laptop or tablet and a real project:  your inbox, a social post, a process that needs tidying, or the to-do item that's been giving you side-eye since summer.  We'll compare notes, troubleshoot together, and see whether AI can make the work faster, easier, or at least a little less relentless.

No AI expertise required.  Just curiosity and an inbox you're ready to negotiate with.  BYOB if you'd like or sample our sparkling water infrastructure.
