🌟 Merci au Cercle canadien de Montréal pour la tenue de cet échange enrichissant sur l’intelligence artificielle en entreprise, avec des perspectives inspirantes d'Isabelle Girard, Magaly Charbonneau et Michel Richer. 👉 Points marquants : •  Adoption et intégration : bien intégrer l’IA requiert plus qu’une simple mise en place technologique. L’architecture des données et la sensibilisation des équipes jouent un rôle clé pour en maximiser l'impact. • Applications et vision : L’IA a déjà un effet transformateur – qu’il s’agisse de l’analyse de données, du service client ou du soutien aux processus décisionnels, elle ouvre de nouvelles possibilités pour l’efficacité et l'innovation. •  Importance d'une équipe dédiée et des essais-erreurs : le développement d'une expertise interne, combiné à une approche d’expérimentation, permet d'optimiser l’utilisation de l'IA, d’ajuster les stratégies et de s’adapter aux évolutions technologiques. 🙌 Merci encore aux organisateurs et aux commanditaires de cet événement, qui contribuent à faire avancer l’écosystème d'IA au Québec. #IA #Innovation #Transformation #BâtisseursdEntreprises

🚀 At the beginning of the month, Karamdeep Nijjar joined a dynamic panel at Elevate Festival on Fundraising for Series A and Beyond, sharing key strategies for founders navigating the complex venture landscape. 🔑 Key takeaways from the panel: 1. Early Planning is Critical: Founders should prepare for fundraising well in advance, ensuring a clear understanding of their growth trajectory and capital needs. 2. Building Strategic Relationships: It’s not just about the funding—having the right investors who offer strategic guidance can be just as important as capital. 3. Navigating the Current Market: With market volatility, it's essential for startups to focus on fundamentals and demonstrate strong unit economics to secure investor confidence. 4. Long-Term Vision: Investors are looking for founders with a clear long-term vision and the resilience to pivot when necessary. 🌟 A big thank you to Elevate for hosting such an impactful event, and a special shout-out to the amazing fellow panelists Neha Khera, Kevin Tsang, and Althea Wishloff for sharing their insights alongside Karam! #VC #Fundraising #TechEcosystem #ElevateFest2024 #CompanyBuilders
