Transform Your Business with AI: Join the Workshop by favy's CEO

On June 25, 2026, a groundbreaking workshop will take place, focusing on how small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can leverage AI to enhance their business operations. Hosted by Kenji Araya, CEO of Keiei Sanbo, this event will feature Takumi Takanashi, the president of favy, who has achieved remarkable success with a 160% revenue growth using AI technologies.

The workshop, titled “How to Build an AI-Powered Management Dashboard and Automate Back-Office Operations”, is designed specifically for SMEs that struggle with digital transformations, particularly those lacking IT expertise or personnel. Takanashi will share practical insights and methods for constructing effective management dashboards using AI, making advanced tools accessible to businesses without extensive tech backgrounds.

The Rising Importance of AI in Management

The rapid development of AI technologies has democratized access to resources previously available only to larger enterprises. Now, SMEs have the opportunity to integrate AI into their workflow, enabling them to gather vital business metrics automatically and in real-time. However, many entrepreneurs face challenges such as a lack of digital skills or the personnel necessary to implement such innovations.

This workshop aims to bridge that gap, providing SMEs with the knowledge and confidence to incorporate AI into their operations successfully. The event will showcase real-world cases where part-time staff with no prior IT experience have successfully automated processes like invoice management and expense reporting through AI solutions.

What to Expect from the Workshop

The workshop is structured into three parts:
1. AI Utilization Techniques for Performance Improvement: An introductory section where Takanashi will outline how favy utilized AI to achieve over 160% growth without increasing their workforce.
2. Building Your Management Dashboard with v0: A technical segment focused on constructing a management dashboard using the v0 platform, providing participants with step-by-step guidance.
3. Real Case Studies in Automation: Insights from Primavera's president, Kousuke Matsuda, on how the company automated its accounting processes effectively.

Participants will benefit from actionable strategies that they can implement immediately, transforming their business approaches and enhancing productivity.
