Why AI Readiness Matters to Every Business — And Every Community
Artificial intelligence isn’t just the future—it’s already transforming how we live, work, and do business. That’s why WEtech Alliance is excited to team up with Workforce WindsorEssex to begin planning our region’s first-ever AI Summit, happening in September 2025.
But here’s the thing: we don’t want to build it without you.
We’re asking entrepreneurs, business owners, community leaders, and organizations of all sizes to take just 5 minutes to complete this short AI Readiness Survey. Your input will directly shape the conference—from the themes and topics we cover to the speakers and experiences we bring in.
This short survey, led in partnership with Workforce WindsorEssex, will help us better understand how regional companies and organizations are navigating AI — or not. And more importantly, it will guide how we, as a community, support businesses and talent in adapting to the future of work.
Here’s why it matters:
- Future-Proofing Our Workforce
AI is already shifting the skills employers need. Some jobs are changing. New ones are being created. If we want to keep talent here—and attract more of it—we need to equip our region with the tools to adapt. Understanding where the community is today helps us build training, education, and support for tomorrow. - Supporting Businesses / Organizations of All Sizes
AI can help SMEs work smarter, automate repetitive tasks, and stay competitive. But for many entrepreneurs/business owners/leaders, AI still feels confusing, intimidating, or out of reach. We want this summit to be a place where learning meets action, and where businesses and organizations get the clarity and support they need to innovate confidently. - Building an Equitable and Resilient Community
Technology must serve everyone—not just a few. By collecting input from a wide range of voices across sectors and industries, we can better identify gaps, barriers, and opportunities to ensure AI adoption is inclusive, ethical, and community-centered.
