It’s not too late to get started with AI and we’re here to prove it!

Our next AMP Takeaway is here and we’re absolutely delighted to be partnering with the AICC for this one.

If you’ve been watching everyone talk about AI and quietly thinking “have I already missed the boat?” this one is for YOU. No jargon. No assumptions. No making you feel like you should already know this stuff. Just real, honest conversation about what AI tools are actually out there, what they do, and how to start using them in a way that makes sense for you.

We’re going to break it all down, answer every question and make sure you leave feeling like you actually get it.

As always, it’s going to be super chill and informal, everyone is welcome, no matter where you’re starting from.

Pre Accelerator Programme Session 4 ✅

This week’s session focused on one of the most important questions for any startup: Who is your customer, and how do you reach them?

We were delighted to welcome back Pre Accelerator alumni Jared Wilson from Sportbnk and Dan Smyth from Olympus Lab, who shared their experiences of building and growing their businesses since completing the programme in Cohort 1 and Cohort 2.

💡 Jared spoke about the importance of customer discovery, sharing that “strong customer discovery starts with listening for repeated patterns.” He highlighted how customer conversations can help founders better understand their audience, validate ideas, and ensure they are creating genuine value.

🎯 Dan encouraged participants to “validate the problem first, then build with confidence.” He shared practical advice on identifying ideal customers, testing demand early, and refining outreach strategies to understand what resonates most with potential customers.

A huge thank you to our Entrepreneur in Residence, Jennifer Neff, for sharing her journey with Access Elemental and providing valuable insights from her own entrepreneurial experience.

We would also like to thank Invest Northern Ireland for funding the programme and the Founder Labs team for their continued support in helping our founders develop and grow their businesses

Pre Accelerator Programme Session 3✅

Friday’s session focused on what makes a startup fundable and credible. We covered problem quantification, helping founders define and communicate the real-world problem their business solves, and solution positioning, ensuring they can explain their offering clearly and effectively to different audiences.

The room was buzzing with breakthroughs and those lightbulb moments that make this programme so special.

An enormous thank you to Padraig Canavan, Ryan Williams & Jennifer Neff for delivering such a rich, impactful session. A massive thank you to Invest NI for making this programme possible through their generous funding. And a huge shoutout to the Founder Labs team for their incredible support 👏
