Last week we hosted an event for a few of our portfolio companies with AI expert Douglas Squirrel focused on “Leveraging AI for Your Business”.

Before this event, we reached out to some of our businesses and invited them to share the ways they are utilising AI and the current challenges they are facing in this space. This allowed Douglas to tailor the event to their specific needs and challenges so that our portfolios could apply the advice to their businesses moving forward.
 
Douglas’s presentation on the “Three Laws of AI” provided valuable insight into the best practices for using AI in business and prompted some great discussion within the session.
 
Thank you again to Douglas Squirrel for hosting and to ToucanTech, Transreport, Popsa, Peckwater Brands, bloobloom and LYMA
for attending.

Congratulations to Transreport on their recent expansion into the Middle East, continuing their mission to make travel accessible. 

This advancement will further unify travel experiences across the UAE, empowering disabled individuals and promoting greater inclusion.
