Innovation Friday Meeting / “Real-Time AI Prototyping Workshop”

Join us for Innovation Friday at SnoValley Innovation Center, led by Marc Krejci, SVIC’s inaugural Entrepreneur in Residence. Marc leads the Innovation Friday session May 8th with a live AI prototyping workshop.

In this fast-paced, hands-on session, we’ll take one real prototype and, as a room, rapidly
shape it into something you could actually show to a customer, without writing production code
or spending weeks on design.

Marc will guide the group through a compressed rapid prototyping workflow using AI tools to
sketch, refine, and test a single concept live on screen. You’ll see how to move from a fuzzy
idea to a testable prototype in real time, with the whole room contributing.

Clear, practical, and designed to help you stop guessing and start validating, while keeping both
risk and tech overhead low.

What We’ll Do Together

Working around one live prototype, the session covers:

  • Framing a concrete customer problem in plain language
  • Rapidly sketching and refining a low-fidelity prototype (live, on shared screen)
  • Using AI to generate and iterate flows, copy, and concepts in real time
  • Running a quick “eyebrow test” with participants to spot magic moments and friction
  • Capturing key learnings you can apply to your own product or idea

Who This Is For

Entrepreneurs, small business owners, and product folks who want a live, end-to-end
demonstration of rapid validation, so they can take the same patterns back to their own teams,
products, and experiments.

No setup required. Bring your curiosity and questions. We’ll provide the prototype, the workflow,
and the pace.
