About this event

Three back-to-back hour-long workshops run by Google trainers on using AI in day-to-day business work, rather than a talk about where AI is heading. The first covers productivity on complex projects, drafting with Gemini, research with NotebookLM and workflows in Google Workspace. The second applies the same lens to customer service, content and automated research for decisions. The third is marketing-specific: audience research in NotebookLM, campaign content with Gemini and performance reporting in Google Analytics 4. Each session includes live demonstrations, and no prior AI experience is assumed. It runs 09:00 to 12:00 in Manchester city centre; the venue is confirmed by email to registered attendees. Free and fully funded, so places are limited and businesses must be Greater Manchester trading organisations to qualify. Why go: the most hands-on free AI session in the city this month, and the only one that walks through the tools with a trainer in the room. Best for owners and marketers who tried Gemini once and stopped.
