AI strategy: a survival issue for SMB executives
By 2025, companies that do not yet have a structured AI strategy will accumulate a competitive lag. This is not an exaggeration: early adopters reduce their costs by 30 to 50% on certain processes, accelerate their time-to-market and free up their teams for high-value missions.
Yet, the majority of SME and SMB leaders find themselves disoriented in the face of the speed of developments. They see their teams using GPT-4o "in a scattered order", hear about AI every week but do not know how translate this technology into a sustainable competitive advantage.
The Expert & Strategy AI program is designed to answer this question: how to build, arbitrate, and pilot an AI strategy adapted to your size, sector, and objectives, with measurable results at 6 and 12 months?
