Discover How to Use AI Safely to Grow & Future-Proof Your Business
One hundred local business leaders will gather on Friday 19th September 2025 at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Oxford for a high-impact networking breakfast and extended workshop designed to help SMEs harness the power of AI — safely, securely, and with immediate business benefit.
The event, jointly hosted by Get Support IT Services and Databasix, promises no fluff, no hype — just practical AI demos, clear safeguards, and next-day actions. Attendees will see end-to-end workflows in action, learn how to avoid common AI pitfalls, and leave with a simple 30-day plan to trial AI in their own organisations.
Common AI pitfalls covered include:
- Data leakage & confidentiality risks
- Vendor “secure” claims that don’t meet UK GDPR standards
- Poor prompts & policy gaps that create liability
- Vendor due-diligence: what to ask before you buy
- Model inaccuracies & human-in-the-loop safeguards
- Change management and team adoption challenges
Five things attendees will learn:
- Where AI delivers fast wins in SMEs — and where it doesn’t.
- How to use Microsoft Copilot and GPT-5 safely in everyday workflows.
- How to automate lead capture and follow-up using HighLevel (live demo).
- Practical steps to safeguard data and remain UK GDPR-compliant.
- A simple 30-day plan to pilot AI in your team.
