As the #1 school for Entrepreneurship, Babson has a proud history of supporting entrepreneurs and small businesses throughout the world. The Generator is proud to announce it is training 1,000 Small Business Owners in AI for business growth and innovation through its AI Innovators Bootcamp.
The program is a 1-day, deep dive into AI taught by Babson’s award-winning faculty, delivered in partnership with Babson’s top students/AI-minds.
Small businesses are the backbone of the U.S. economy:

- Innovation: Small businesses generate 16 times more patents per employee than large firms

Working in cohorts of 50+, small business owners learn:
- Core concepts in AI
- How AI is shaping innovation and competition across all industries
- How to use cutting-edge AI tools to drive innovation and efficiency through hands-on-keys activities supported by Babson faculty and students
