Limited charter cohort

A trusted peer circle for people putting AI to work.

The Foundari AI Operators Circle is a curated monthly gathering for Columbus-area professionals actively applying AI in their business or profession, and seeking honest, practical conversations with peers who understand the work.

Monthly

Second Wednesdays

9:00–10:30am

CoHatch Bexley

First session: October 14, 2026.

This is not a general AI training class, vendor-demo event, or lead-generation forum. It is a confidential working circle for people bringing real use cases, questions, and lessons.

THE DIFFERENCE

A working circle, not another AI event.

This is

A trusted working circle
Peer-led and practical
Built around real operating work
Curated for contribution

This is not

A generic networking breakfast
A sales or product-demo event
An introductory AI class
An open RSVP event

WHO IT IS FOR

Built for people doing the work.

We're looking for people already applying AI, or actively preparing to.

Business owners and operating leaders at small and midsize organizations

Functional leaders in operations, sales, marketing, customer experience, finance, HR, and professional services

Independent consultants implementing AI and automation in real client contexts

Technology, data, product, or automation practitioners with business operating experience

This group isn't a fit for vendors pitching products, consultants prospecting for clients, or anyone looking only for an introduction to AI basics.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Bring a real question. Leave with a practical next step.

Real case discussion

Members bring an actual operating challenge to the table, not a hypothetical, and work it through with peers who have faced similar problems.

Peer problem-solving

The room works the problem together. No pitches, no lectures, just practitioners comparing notes on what actually worked.

Confidential by design

Sessions run under the Chatham House Rule. No recording, and no sales or recruiting pitches, so members can speak candidly.

Thank you for applying. Foundari will review your request and follow up about fit and availability.
