Join us for this virtual edition of our monthly AI meetup to engage in laid-back discussions on all things Artificial Intelligence! 🤖
Everything AI is changing sooooooooooo quickly, it's hard to keep up let alone dip your toes in and get started.
Join Randy Otterbridge of the RBRIDGE BUSINESS INSTITUTE, LLC (RBI) and Startup Grind Grand Rapids Chapter Director Corey Hart for our monthly AI meetup to engage in laid-back discussions on all things Artificial Intelligence! 🤖
Each month, expect AI tool reviews, tips, news, expert guests, and a forum to ask the experts anything AI.
It's said that one of the two largest buckets in the entrepreneurship boom is in Artificial Intelligence. The last time we saw such a boom was with the proliferation of the personal computer... but it took the personal computer a decade-plus to boost real productivity (first dot-com boom). AI's ability to boost productivity is happening much faster, and entrepreneurs need to get in now to take advantage of the very real productivity gains.
Don't get left in the dust!
Randy Otterbridge is an AI enthusiast who helps businesses and entrepreneurs execute on their strategy and profit goals. Randy has written numerous books on a powerful range of subjects and has started companies in offline and online spaces.

We are interested in hosting guest speakers who can help inform our membership on all things and intersections of AI. Please email corey@startupgrind.com if you'd like to join us as a guest and contribute to the discussion.
If there's a topic around AI that deserves a deep dive, fire off the request to corey@startupgrind.com, and we can reach into our database of thousands of speakers to bring expertise and knowledge to a future event.
We'll try and keep things moving... and we can always take conversations offline, pin items for further discussion, and work to develop workshops and panels around identified deep dives.
Occasionally we'll meet in person! Stay tuned for those dates and details.
