AI workshops: The first step to lasting AI impact
Too many AI ideas, not enough direction? Our AI workshops are built for teams facing unclear priorities, low-yield experiments, or pressure to deliver without a clear roadmap. At Vention, we bring engineering peace of mind by helping you cut through the complexity and turn potential into real, measurable progress.
Whether you're a CTO, head of engineering, chief product officer, product manager, or startup founder, our AI discovery workshops are designed to meet you where you are and move you forward with clarity.
Key deliverables and strategic takeaways
Our AI discovery workshops are structured to provide clear insights into AI strategy and practical implementation steps. You’ll walk away with a set of deliverables that show where you are now, what’s possible with AI, how to get there, and how to measure success.

FAQs
How should we prepare before the workshop?
Define your goals and expectations to get the most out of your AI strategy workshop. Even if they’re high-level or exploratory, that’s already a solid baseline.
Also, encourage key decision-makers to attend the sessions. Their input is critical for aligning priorities and validating assumptions.
Who from our side should participate in the sessions?
We recommend involving a mix of key roles: business decision-makers, process owners, technical experts, and data owners. The final list of roles depends on your organization’s structure and workshop goals.
If you're unsure who to invite, we're happy to provide a tailored recommendation to help you bring the right people into the room.
What’s the duration of the entire process, from meet-and-greet to final recommendations?
Each case is specific, but usually the entire process takes 2-6 weeks.
Is this workshop only for companies that already use AI?
This workshop is tailored to your goals and situation, and it's equally valuable for enterprise companies and startups looking to scale existing efforts or take their very first steps.
Can the workshop be tailored to a specific department or business unit?
Yes, you define the scope, whether company-wide or focused on a specific department, team, or unit. We tailor the content, use cases, and recommendations accordingly.
Do you offer implementation help?
Absolutely. If you’d like to pursue the ideas explored during the workshop, you can request our AI development services, and we’ll help bring them to life, from prototyping to full-scale implementation.
Is the workshop suitable for non-technical stakeholders?
Yes. While we cover technical aspects, we always make sure to explain complex topics clearly to non-technical participants.
How is an AI workshop different from a typical AI consulting session?
An AI workshop sits at the intersection of consulting and discovery services. Both aim to provide clarity, expert guidance, and actionable next steps.
The difference lies in delivery: workshops are interactive, collaborative, and fast-paced, while traditional AI consulting services may be less hands-on and more open-ended.
