Using Artificial Intelligence to Build, Test, and Strengthen Your Startup Story
EVENT DETAILS
Date and Time
April 10, 2026
9:00 AM - 11:00 AM
Location
Cardwell Collaborative
This interactive workshop, led by Ivan Gris, Deputy Chief Technology Officer for the City of El Paso, will guide participants in using AI tools to simulate investors, advisors, and critical judges who challenge ideas and strengthen messaging. Rather than relying on AI to simply generate a pitch deck, founders will learn how to build their own AI “judging panel” to evaluate clarity, market fit, storytelling, and overall impact.
Participants will practice using AI to:
• Stress-test their startup narrative
• Identify gaps in their problem and solution framing
• Improve storytelling and persuasion
• Prepare for tough investor questions
• Refine messaging for social impact and public health innovation
This is a hands-on interactive workshop, bring your devices and your favorite agents or create your free accounts (Gemini, Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) prior to the event.
