Lendscape, in partnership with industry innovation specialists TomorrowZone, will host its first collaborative workshop to shift the conversation around AI from talk to traction.

On March 18th, Beyond the Buzz will be focused on helping equipment finance organizations translate artificial intelligence from discussion into practical operational use.

Scheduled on the heels of the Innovation Lab Conference & Exhibition conference March 16-17, the session will bring together a carefully selected group of senior equipment finance professionals to work through real servicing and back-office scenarios, sharing experiences and identifying approaches that can be applied directly within day-to-day operations. Moderated by Deborah Reuben, CLFP, CEO and Founder of TomorrowZone, the workshop is designed as an interactive working forum rather than a traditional conference session, encouraging collaborative problem-solving and practical takeaways.

“Across the industry, there is strong interest in the potential of AI, but the real focus is now on how organizations can apply it in ways that deliver measurable operational value,” said Steve Taplin, Chief Product Officer at Lendscape. “Our Beyond the Buzz workshop creates the space for leaders to step back from the noise, work through real operational challenges together, and explore approaches that move innovation from conversation into action.”

Deborah Reuben, CLFP, CEO and Founder of TomorrowZone, added: “With all the AI headlines, leaders are craving clarity. They’re no longer asking whether AI matters. They’re asking where to begin with intention, without overwhelming their teams. This workshop creates space to step away from the noise, get clear together, and co-create practical AI use cases leaders can take back and confidently apply.”

“Meaningful innovation happens when technology insight is combined with operational experience and industry collaboration,” said Sean Scampton, VP of Sales – Equipment Finance at Lendscape. “Working alongside TomorrowZone, this session is designed to give participants a focused environment where practical solutions can be explored, refined, and taken back into their organizations with confidence.”
