Lehigh Valley LaunchBox

Time is running out. Application deadline is Friday. Apply to pitch, gain visibility, validate your ideas, and secure early-stage support.

One of the hardest parts of entrepreneurship is answering a simple question:

Is this a good business idea?

Customer research, market analysis, and competitive insights can take weeks—or months.

Artificial Intelligence is beginning to change that.

Founders are now using AI to:
• analyze markets faster
• explore customer segments
• generate insights
• test ideas quickly

Join us at Lehigh Valley LaunchBox as Brad Zdenek shares practical ways entrepreneurs can use AI to accelerate discovery and decision making.

If you're in the idea stage or early startup phase, this session will open your eyes to what’s possible.

Running a startup means doing everything yourself.

Marketing.
Research.
Customer outreach.
Operations.
Strategy.

Many early-stage founders are working nights and weekends just to keep up.

But what if some of those tasks could take minutes instead of hours?

Artificial Intelligence is quickly becoming a tool that allows entrepreneurs to work smarter and move faster.

At Lehigh Valley LaunchBox, we’re excited to host Brad Zdenek from Invent Penn State for a session on AI for Your Business.

Brad will share practical ways founders can start using AI today to support marketing, research, and growth.

If you're building a business and want to save time while increasing impact, this conversation is for you.

One of the biggest challenges for early-stage founders?

You can't hire everyone you need yet.

Most startups don't have:
• a marketing team
• a research analyst
• a content writer
• a customer support team

But today, AI can help fill some of those gaps.

Join us at Lehigh Valley LaunchBox as Brad Zdenek shares how entrepreneurs are using AI tools to extend their capabilities and grow their businesses.

This session is designed for founders who want to increase productivity without increasing payroll.

Entrepreneurs, innovators, and curious business owners are all welcome.

Entrepreneurs wear a lot of hats.

Marketing.
Customer service.
Research.
Operations.
Strategy.

And most early-stage founders are doing all of it themselves.

Artificial Intelligence is quickly becoming one of the most powerful tools for small businesses and startups to work smarter, move faster, and compete with larger companies.

But many founders still ask:

• Where do I start with AI?
• What tools actually work?
• How can AI help my business today?

Join us at Lehigh Valley LaunchBox as Brad Zdenek from Invent Penn State shares practical ways entrepreneurs can start using AI right now to support marketing, research, and business growth.

If you're building a business and want to learn how to use AI as a competitive advantage, this session is for you.
