Made Smarter & Shoestring. AI Integration and You

Join Made Smarter, Cambridge Kinetics & Shoestring as they demystify AI and how it can help your business

This Made Smarter session—run by Cambridge Kinetics – is a practical, no-jargon workshop for manufacturers who want to modernise business systems and adopt AI the right way.

 

Across talks, demos, and a peer-led discussion, you’ll learn how to map where your data really lives (paper, SharePoint, ERP/MRP and beyond), remove duplication and “paper gaps”, and build the solid foundations that make AI useful—whether that’s anomaly detection, early-warning insights, or surfacing the right information to the right people at the right time.
