Agentic AI is something we think all organisations should be taking a good look at. It goes further than chatbots and co-pilots, but so does the impact.<\/p>\n

In this webinar, we’ll focus on agentic AI: what agents actually are, and where they can take the pain out of day-to-day work. We’ll use live demos to show you what this looks like in practice, from automating the tedious stuff nobody wants to do, to coordinating tasks across multiple systems.<\/p>\n

So if you’re wondering how to get started, join us. We’ll keep it straight-talking and practical, and you’ll come away with knowledge to guide your next steps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8774,"template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_cbd_carousel_blocks":"[]"},"event_listing_category":[293],"event_listing_type":[276],"class_list":["post-10177","event_listing","type-event_listing","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event_listing_category-business-professional","event_listing_type-class-training-or-workshop"],"yoast_head":"\nPromoted Event: Waterstons - AI: You've seen the chatbot...
