Tech Talk: AI, IT & What They Mean for Your Business

Tech Talk: AI, IT & What They Mean for Your Business

Join us on December 9 for a practical, jargon-free session designed to help business leaders understand the technology shaping today's workplace.
You’ll hear from two expert speakers who will:

  • Break down AI (Artificial Intelligence): What it is, what it isn’t, and how it can help you save time, boost efficiency, and stay competitive.
  • Unpack IT (Information Technology): Learn how to protect yourself and your business from cybersecurity threats, data breaches, and tech-related risks.
  • Answer your questions: Plenty of time for Q&A, so you can leave with clarity and confidence.
Whether you're a tech novice or just looking to stay ahead, this session will give you tools and insight you can put to use immediately.

It’s also a great opportunity for team building—bring your staff or even a potential member and experience the value of HBAF together.
