A true example of #TheStateWay — where curiosity meets impact. 💙🐾 Thanks to ENI's Stephen Lott II, MBA for his participation and presentation. #eniGSU #StateStarts #LaunchGSU #GeorgiaState #RCB #AI #Innovation #StartAruba #VentureAtlanta #Entrepreneurship #StartSomething
LaunchGSU recently hosted the 2025 StartAruba cohort, thanks to alum Evan Marlborough (Sr. Econ. Policy Officer at the Consulate General of the Netherlands in Atlanta). Undergraduate students from CIS 3100 presented on Generative AI and DBA student Stephen Lott led an engaging presentation on the macro- and micro-level implications and applications of artificial intelligence for small business owners. #GSU #StateStarts #EniGSU #TheStateWay #RobinsonCollege #GenAI #AI #SmallBusiness

Last month’s Innovation Roundtable—hosted by the @The Entrepreneurship and Innovation Institute at Georgia State University in partnership with the @Georgia Fintech Academy — was both energizing and enlightening. A huge thank you to Ralph White who led a dynamic and thought-provoking session on “AI for Innovators,” showing how Artificial Intelligence extends far beyond ChatGPT. ENI's Director @Joyelle Harris, Ph.D., MBA kicked off the morning's activities as Ralph challenged everyone to think beyond the buzz and truly build with AI—using it as a tool for personal growth, team empowerment, and organizational innovation. We appreciate everyone who joined us for this impactful morning discussion and look forward to continuing the conversation at the next Innovation Roundtable session on Strategies for Innovation: Putting People F.I.R.S.T. #enigsu #TheStateWay #StateStarts #AIforInnovators #InnovationLeadership #GSUEntrepreneurship #GeorgiaFinTechAcademy #AI
