Artificial Intelligence
Demystifying AI for Business Owners
Artificial Intelligence has the potential to make a transformative impact on Alaska, by leveling the playing field between us and the rest of the world.
To that end, the Alaska SBDC has established an Artificial Intelligence Resource Program. Our AI Resource Program can help connect business owners with new tools and resources, and leverage AI solutions for business operations, customer experiences, and product development – while contributing to the advancement of AI in Alaska.

Small Business Survey Report
The Small Business Survey, conducted in late 2024, captured a snapshot of a growth-minded business community of nearly 960 small businesses across 92 communities, covering 75% of Alaska’s industries. But by April 2025, responses from a re-engaged group of 273 businesses (29% of the original sample) told a very different story.
