Getting Started as an AI Entrepreneur

If you’ve ever thought about forming a startup, this is an especially good time—particularly as an AI-first company. The tools and costs of building have changed dramatically, opening paths that don’t require moving to Silicon Valley, raising large amounts of capital, or quitting your job before you’re ready.

For many professionals, the traditional startup story simply doesn’t fit. People have responsibilities, families, and careers they can’t walk away from. At the same time, many are bold, creative, and deeply knowledgeable in their domains—but lack access to startup networks, venture capital, or a clear entry point.

This session is designed with that reality in mind.

We’ll cover:

• What the real startup opportunity in AI looks like today
• How to assess whether AI entrepreneurship makes sense for you
• How to begin laying the groundwork without taking big risks

You don’t need a finished idea or a technical background. This session is about understanding the opportunity, seeing a realistic path forward, and taking the first steps toward becoming an AI entrepreneur—on your own terms.
