How to Start Using AI in Your Company on a Small Budget

This session is designed for SME owners, startup founders, and business decision-makers who want to move from understanding AI to actually starting with it in practice.

In this second meetup, we will focus on how to take the first concrete steps toward using AI in your business, without requiring large budgets or complex systems.

We will discuss:

How to identify the right starting point for your business

* What you actually need to begin (data, tools, effort)

A simple step-by-step approach to a first use case

* What is realistic to implement with limited budget and resources
* Common mistakes when starting and how to avoid them

This is not a technical or coding session. The goal is to provide clear, business-oriented guidance that you can directly apply to your own organisation.

Agenda:
18:30 – 18:40 Introduction and recap from previous session
18:40 – 19:30 How to start using AI: step-by-step approach with practical examples
19:30 – 19:50 Discussion, questions, and participant input
19:50 – 20:00 Key takeaways and closing

This event is part of the Vienna Data Strategy Forum, a meetup focused on practical applications of AI, data, and analytics for businesses in Vienna.
