Presenting: Stop Hiring, Start Systemizing: 3 AI Workflows You Can Copy to 10x Productivity
Most business owners fall into the same trap: too many roles, too little time, and the belief that hiring more people is the only way forward. In this session, the speaker shows a different path – building smarter systems that reduce manual work and create leverage in day-to-day operations.
You’ll get a step-by-step look at three AI workflows already running in a real business. You will see how a CEO dashboard can be automated to deliver real-time metrics in about 60 seconds, how outreach can scale from 100 to 5,000 contacts per month with one person using AI-led personalization, and how to build a content engine that publishes daily without burning out the team.
This talk is designed to be practical and easy to replicate, even if you do not have a technical background. You’ll walk away with a clear framework for choosing what to automate first, specific tools you can implement tomorrow, and a mindset shift from “I need to hire” to “what can run without me?”

Presenting: Choosing the Right Automation & AI Tools: Practical Decisions for European Businesses
Many businesses struggle with AI and automation, not because the technology is missing, but because they choose the wrong tools at the wrong time. In this session, you will get a clear framework for deciding when to automate, when to introduce AI, and which tools fit different types of work.
The speaker focuses on decision-making, not technical demos. You will learn how to assess process maturity, recognize where human judgment still matters, and avoid common mistakes like automating broken processes or using AI as a shortcut without understanding what it actually does.
You will see how to distinguish between automation-first and AI-first approaches, and where tools like Make, n8n, and AI-agent platforms fit into real operational scenarios. The session also covers what European teams should consider around data privacy, hosting, and long-term maintenance, so your choices remain sustainable as your business grows.
This session gives you mental models, practical examples, and actionable guidelines you can apply immediately to evaluate automation and AI opportunities in your own organization. You will leave with clarity on how to make smarter tool decisions that support real business outcomes.
