This week, our team explored how Big Sur Technologies is staying ahead of the curve with AI initiatives that empower small and mid-sized businesses. As tools like Microsoft Copilot and other AI-driven solutions become more common in the workplace, Big Sur is leading the way among businesses in the Tampa Bay area. Helping organizations harness these innovations to boost productivity, streamline operations, and make smarter technology decisions. By actively investing in and adopting cutting-edge AI strategies, we ensure our clients are prepared for the future of work.

A major theme of the conversation was AI readiness: before turning on new tools, organizations need to ensure their data, security, and access permissions are properly structured so AI can work effectively (and safely). We also discussed the growing need for education and practical use cases, since many businesses have heard of AI but aren’t sure where to start or what “good” implementation looks like.

Our focus moving forward is to develop a clear, realistic approach that helps clients take the first steps. Starting with internal readiness and foundational best practices, engaging with our clients through education opportunities like lunch & learns and AI readiness assessments to help organizations prepare for what’s next.
