Building a Data Flywheel for Your AI Startup (Lunch&Learn)

LUNCH WILL BE SERVED :) How can your AI product get better as more people use it? Join 3x founder Simon Woodside, Expert Advisor @ iF, for an interactive session exploring data flywheels—a cycle where user activity generates useful data, that data improves your AI product, and those improvements create more value for users and a competitive moat for your business. Drawing on his experience in iterative product and business development, Simon will explore how founders can design this feedback loop into their products. He’ll demonstrate a small AI sandbox to show the process in action, with an opportunity for attendees to download it and experiment afterward (coding not required). What we’ll explore: Identifying opportunities for a data flywheel within your product. Turning user interactions and feedback into useful improvements. Where context engineering, RAG, fine-tuning, and open models fit. Designing a small experiment to test your approach. Expect a mix of conversation, live demonstration, and Q&A, with opportunities to discuss real examples from attendees. Who should attend? Founders and product or technical leads building AI-native or AI-enabled products.Bring your questions: Come ready to share a product example or a challenge you’re facing with user feedback, data, or AI performance.
