How it works – SME

Because this is a fully funded feasibility pilot, there is no financial risk to your business. Here are the simple steps to get involved:

  1. 1

    Complete the Expression of Interest

    Please fill out our brief Expression of Interest form available from the top menu to let us know you would like to participate.

  2. 2

    Attend a Discovery Workshop

    You will be invited to a local drop-in workshop where we can explain the project in more detail, answer your questions, and discuss how AI can safely work for you.

  3. 3

    Map Your Pain Points

    We will work with you through an "AI Readiness Diagnostic" to identify your specific operational pain points and pinpoint the best opportunities to adopt AI within your business.

  4. 4

    Identify Your AI Champion

    You will simply need to identify an "AI Champion" within your business, someone who understands your operations and can guide the business requirements.

  5. 5

    Get Matched with an Expert

    Your AI Champion will be paired with a skilled, fully trained AI candidate (your "AI Buddy") using our intelligent matching engine to ensure a perfect fit for your specific business needs.

  6. 6

    Implement Your Solution

    Over a focused 4 to 6-week period for 4 to 12 hours per week, your AI Buddy will work alongside your Champion to complete your specific project, leaving your business with a live, safe, and effective AI workflow.

This is a unique opportunity to boost your productivity, safely integrate AI into your business, and help support local digital talent into the workforce.
