Communitech hosts a morning panel in Kitchener on how AI changes career and founder trajectories. Speakers Ashley Francisco, Jen Smith and Heather Galt discuss practical AI strategy, what skills still build credibility once AI handles basic execution, and how founders can use AI for prototyping, research and positioning without relying on hype. The conversation also covers personal brand, judgment and voice as things that resist automation, and why diverse perspectives matter as AI use becomes default. Registration and networking open at 8:30 AM, followed by the panel and an audience Q&A.
