SUMMARY:Friday Noons: The Winemaker's Agents with Kirk Drake
DESCRIPTION:Kirk Drake runs Resistance Winery\, among other companies\, and its Ashland tasting room along with his wife Kimberly. He also serves as board president of ScienceWorks Hands-On Museum\, and has the same 24 hours as everyone else. His solution is a growing crew of AI agents that take on the work behind the wine. Bring your lunch and your questions. Kirk will bring the wine. Kirk will walk through what he's built and where he's taking it next.\n\nMEET KIRK\nWith decades of experience as a digital architect and technology pioneer in both the credit union and fintech spaces\, Kirk is a master at using humor to explain complex ideas and drive change.\n\nAs a serial entrepreneur with limitless creativity\, Kirk is not afraid to challenge the status quo and push boundaries in order to achieve success. With his captivating presence\, strategic thinking\, and visionary approach\, he inspires audiences to think outside the box and embrace disruptive ideas that can revolutionize their industries.\n\nHe founded CU 2.0\, an AI innovation studio for credit unions\, and XDI\, an AI-driven fraud and document intelligence platform for financial institutions. He also runs Resistance Wine Company\, a boutique winery\, and McDrake Print — proof the same AI playbook works whether he's fighting fraud or bottling syrah.\n\nhttps://storytownashland.com/events/friday-noons-the-winemaker-s-agents-with-kirk-drake
