Event Description

In today’s challenging business environment, small and medium businesses face pressures from rising costs, skills shortages, and shifting economic conditions. To navigate these challenges, many are turning to technology and AI tools to drive efficiency and boost productivity.


This workshop, presented by nbn co and Microsoft, goes beyond explaining why upskilling in AI is essential. It will demonstrate how you and your team can leverage AI-driven tools already embedded in the software you use every day, with a focus on practical applications and measurable productivity improvements.


You will learn:



  • Small and Medium Business Microsoft Copilot Workshop

  • Actionable AI solutions for greater efficiency and success.



As a small business owner, leveraging Microsoft 365 Copilot can boost your productivity and streamline operations. Imagine having an intelligent assistant to help draft emails, create marketing content, and manage your schedule efficiently.


Copilot quickly generates professional documents, such as business proposals and reports, by providing a few key details. It analyses customer feedback and generates insightful summaries, helping you make informed decisions. Additionally, it creates detailed financial reports and tracks expenses.


Copilot can assist various departments within an organization:
•    Finance: Creating detailed financial reports, tracking expenses, and budget planning.
•    Marketing: Drafting compelling marketing content and analysing customer feedback.
•    Sales: Generating sales reports and managing customer relationships.
•    Human Resources: Writing employee handbooks and managing recruitment processes.
•    Operations: Scheduling meetings, setting reminders, and organizing workflows


By automating routine tasks, you can free up time for strategic activities, enhancing your efficiency and giving you a competitive edge.  
So join this event to see how Copilot integrates with the applications you use on a daily basis.
