Beyond the Hype: A Pragmatic Blueprint for Generative AI — From First Steps to ROI
Your competitors are already running AI. Most of them are doing it wrong. The webinar that shows business leaders exactly where AI delivers ROI — and where it quietly kills it.
WATCH THE RECORDING NOW
The AI reality gap:
89% of small and medium businesses now use AI. Only 6% generate meaningful returns from it.
The gap isn't technology. It's strategy, sequencing, and a realistic view of what AI can actually do for a business your size, with your team, and your budget.
This 60-minute session with Boris Lentini — Sr. Director and Head of AI Practice at Grid Dynamics — cuts through the noise with a practitioner's blueprint.

Inside the recording
Gen AI: Hype vs. Reality
The real AI adoption numbers for SMBs in 2025 — including why 70–85% of AI projects still fail and what separates the 6% that see returns within 12 months. You'll leave knowing which AI claims to believe and which to ignore.
A prioritization framework that works at your scale
A practical method for ranking AI use cases by business value and implementation feasibility. Designed for lean teams without dedicated ML engineers.
The foundational platform principle
Why the first AI solution you build should make every subsequent one cheaper and faster. How a fintech company went from zero to 5 production AI agents in 12 months.
The pitfalls that derail SMB AI projects
Misaligned expectations, poor use case selection, data quality gaps, change management failures. A frank review of what actually kills AI pilots before they reach production.
