On May 18th, the Centri Tech Foundation partnered with the Black upStart and Martha's Table to host the "AI for Entrepreneurs Workshop" in Washington, D.C. This in-person event brought together 33 individuals with little to no tech or entrepreneurship experience and provided them with an immersive, daylong training to learn how to leverage generative #AI and digital tools to kickstart side hustles and advance their business ventures. The AI for Entrepreneurs Workshop was made possible with funding from Verizon’s Forward Community Enhancement Award in support of the Centri Tech Foundation's new initiative #CommunitySkillsConnect.

We’d like to take an opportunity to thank our partners and collaborators on this year's DC Entrepreneurs Workshop. Thank you to Verizon for their generous support and of course to our partner Martha's Table for their hospitality and collaboration.

Our 2024 AI for Entrepreneurs workshop in Washington, DC was such a hit that the community asked for more—and we listened! On January 25th we partnered with Martha's Table and Black upStart once again to bring AI learning back to DC’s Ward 8! This event would not have been possible without the support of Verizon, the innovative AI curriculum and hands-on facilitation of The Black UpStart, the welcoming hospitality and coordination of Martha’s Table, and the swift and generous laptop donations by Computers 4 People facilitated by Digitunity. Together, we provided 20 aspiring entrepreneurs? a one-day immersive AI training, teaching them? to design and produce their own t-shirts, custom journals, and shea butter labels. A huge thank you to our partners, our returning and new participants, and to everyone who made this workshop such a success! We look forward to continuing this important work and if you or your organization are interested in hosting a workshop of your own, contact:?[email protected] #AIForAll #BlackHistoryMonth #DigitalAdvancement #Entrepreneurship
