Mindstone and Gamma partner in enterprise AI tools initiative
Mindstone, a global training platform and community focused on the practical use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for non-technical staff, and Gamma, the San Francisco-based provider of an AI-powered presentation platform, have announced a strategic partnership to accelerate the adoption of AI presentation tools among non-technical professionals.
The partnership, which marks Mindstone's first global collaboration with an AI tool provider, will amplify the integration of Gamma's platform into Mindstone's training programmes and community offerings. This initiative is particularly timely as studies show that occupations exposed to AI are experiencing significantly higher productivity growth than those that aren't. Programme participants will receive exclusive training and access to Gamma enabling them to experience enterprise-grade AI presentation capabilities firsthand.
This collaboration comes at a crucial time when generative AI is yielding an average ROI of $3.7 for every dollar spent, with industry leaders achieving up to 10x returns. However, a significant gap exists between access to AI tools and their effective implementation in daily work. This partnership directly addresses this challenge by bringing Gamma's intuitive AI presentation platform to Mindstone's community of 16,000 professionals and enterprise clients, while providing structured guidance on maximising its potential.
The programme, already live, integrates Gamma's platform into Mindstone's monthly cohort training and London's largest in-person monthly AI meetups. Participants will receive hands-on training in Gamma's AI presentation tools as part of the core curriculum, alongside practical skills in prompt engineering and workflow automation.
"This partnership represents a significant milestone in democratising AI tools for non-technical professionals," said Joshua Wöhle, CEO and Co-Founder at Mindstone. "While many organisations are investing heavily in AI technology, the real challenge lies in effective implementation. Gamma's platform exemplifies how AI can enhance productivity without requiring technical expertise, and by combining their technology with our training expertise, we're creating a clear pathway for professionals to leverage AI in their daily work."
"The gap between having AI tools and knowing how to use them effectively represents one of the biggest challenges in enterprise technology today," said Grant Lee, Co-Founder of Gamma. "By partnering with Mindstone, we're not just providing access to AI-powered presentation capabilities – we're ensuring professionals have the skills and confidence to leverage these tools to their full potential. This collaboration represents a crucial step toward democratising AI in the workplace, where the ability to create compelling presentations shouldn't be limited by technical expertise."
