Creative Intelligence: Artificial Intelligence in Advertising Production

How much time does your team spend creating a single advertising creative? And what if proper testing requires not one or two, but dozens of different variations?

The first practical workshop of Small Business Growth Academy will focus on how to use generative AI to create advertising materials faster and with fewer resources.

Participants will explore AI-generated creative within the Meta ecosystem, learn how to write prompts for image generation, refine the generated results, and create multiple versions of the same creative to test different advertising hypotheses.

The main goal of the workshop is to show how a small team can integrate AI into a real advertising production workflow, rather than use it only as an experimental tool.

The workshop will take place as part of the Small Business Growth Academy by Meta, CoobX, and Almaty Hub.

📅 October 8, 2026

🕚 10:00–13:00

📍 Almaty Hub, 24 Zenkov St., 4th floor, Event Hall

👉 The event is supported by the Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Akimat of Almaty.

Register and join the first practical workshop of the Small Business Growth Academy!

To attend the event, please download the Astana Hub app in advance and register through the app.
