Invest2Innovate Launches AI Workshop Series to Help Founders Build Their First AI-Powered App

Published on

Invest2Innovate (i2i) is organizing a three-day AI Workshop Series, “Build & Launch Your First AI-Powered App,” from September 2 to 4. The live online program is designed for founders, professionals, and AI enthusiasts who want to explore how artificial intelligence can solve real-world problems — without requiring any coding expertise.

The series will kick off on September 2 with an orientation session called “AI Fit Test,” led by Jaya Rajwani, AI Technology Lead at iENGINEERING. This session will help participants frame the right problems for AI and understand how to move from concept to prototype.

On September 3, Day 1 of the workshop, participants will gain insights from Esna Ong, Regional Startup Success Manager at Google Cloud. The session will explore how startups locally and globally are using AI, showcase live demonstrations of generative AI tools, and provide an overview of the latest Google Cloud innovations announced at Cloud NEXT and I/O Extended. Eligible i2i accelerator alumni will also have the opportunity to access $25,000 in Google Cloud credits to further develop their AI solutions.

The final day, September 4, is a paid hands-on workshop led by Abdul Ghaffar, Senior Product Manager at DataGPT. Participants will learn step-by-step how to build an AI-powered analytics dashboard using tools like Cursor, Supabase, and open-source large language models. Those who upgrade to the paid session will also receive a 14-day free trial of Cursor Pro, access to i2i’s exclusive AI WhatsApp circle, and an AI Starter Kit to continue experimenting post-event.

Days 0 and 1 are free to attend, while Day 2 requires a paid upgrade. The program is structured to provide practical knowledge, live demos, and guided exercises to help participants turn ideas into functional AI applications rapidly. By combining mentorship with accessible no-code tools, i2i aims to make AI development approachable for entrepreneurs and professionals who may not have a technical background but want to leverage emerging technologies in their work.

Invest2Innovate has built a reputation for fostering entrepreneurial talent across Pakistan and beyond, and this initiative reflects its continued commitment to equipping founders with the skills and exposure necessary to succeed in today’s innovation-driven economy. The workshop promises to connect participants with global experts, highlight real startup use cases, and offer tangible pathways to integrate AI into business models and products.

Registration for Days 0 and 1 is available for free at tinyurl.com/i2iAIWorkshopDay0to1, while details and booking for the Day 2 paid session can be found at invest2innovate.com/build-launch-your-first-ai-powered-app.
