Kicking Off the BoB York Summer Business Expo with Phil Clark from Say Yes

We’re excited to announce the first speaker for the BoB York Summer Business Expo, taking place on 4th June—Phil Clark from Say Yes.

Phil will be opening the conversation with a refreshingly honest look at his journey into AI. Rather than overwhelming theory or technical jargon, his session focuses on what getting started actually looks like in practice. He’ll walk through the early steps he took, the wins that made it worthwhile, the dead ends that didn’t, and where those experiences have led him today.

The aim of this session is simple: to make AI feel accessible.

For many business owners and professionals, AI can feel like something you’re already behind on - or something that requires deep technical expertise to even begin. Phil’s talk challenges that idea. You don’t need to understand everything, and you certainly don’t need a computer science degree. What matters is finding where AI can support your work and starting from there.

If you’ve been asking yourself:

• Where do I even begin with AI?

• Do I need technical knowledge to use it properly?

This session is designed with you in mind. Expect practical insights, real examples, and a confidence boost to help you start experimenting in a way that works for you.
