Description

As a Naples Chamber member, I’m excited to open my first local event to the Southwest Florida business community. 

If you’ve been wondering what AI really means for your business, and you’re tired of hearing about it from vendors who have a financial interest in the answer, this day is for you. On Friday, April 3rd, I’m hosting a full-day workshop designed specifically for local business owners and nonprofit leaders who want practical, no-nonsense answers about AI. 

About Your Host 

My name is Windie Wilson, founder of AI Works Advisors. I’ve been working with machine learning and AI since 1996, starting at Hewlett-Packard, Intel, then as an SAP implementation specialist, and most recently as a Global Go-To-Market Director at Microsoft where I helped enterprise teams worldwide adopt AI and Copilot technologies. 

I’m not a vendor. I’m not trying to sell you software. I’m the person companies called when implementation projects went sideways, and I’m now bringing that experience directly to our local business community. 

What You’ll Learn 

• What AI is (and isn’t) for a business like yours in plain English, no tech jargon 
• Practical ways to grow revenue, reduce costs, and free up your team’s time 
• A 90-day action plan of quick wins you can start the week after the event 
• How to evaluate AI vendors and consultants before signing anything 
• Real-world examples from businesses similar to yours
