AI can feel like something built for big teams with big budgets, but getting ready for it has very little to do with how much you can spend. This practical session breaks AI readiness down into eight simple foundations, from leadership and ethics through to your data, your team's skills and how you measure what works, and looks at what each one really means for a small fundraising team. Less hype, more "where do I actually start." Along the way we'll share what we're seeing across the sector: the common gaps, the strengths smaller organisations often have without realising it, and the few foundations that matter most when resources are tight. You'll leave knowing where your organisation is strong, where to focus first, and with a link to a practical tool to help map your own starting point.
