&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Tighter timelines. Higher volumes. Clients expecting more polish than ever. AI can help your team keep up, but only if you use it the right way. Join us for an insightful workshop led by Harrison Nolan, VP of AI Solutions at SiteAI.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Where AI actually adds value in the bid management process (and where it falls short)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Tools for sourcing RFPs, content generation, knowledge reuse, and process support&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;How to build AI-enabled workflows from RFP intake through final review&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;How to navigate real-world hurdles: IT restrictions, confidentiality, change resistance, and quality control&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Quick wins your team can implement tomorrow&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;
