ADAPTIG, THE COMPANY I CO-FOUNDED

## We help teams actually adopt AI, in many countries.

I co-founded Adaptig to provide corporate AI training. This film shows our hands-on workshops in action.

## Start with what’s getting stuck. Then decide how to learn.

Some teams need a starting point. Others have tried AI but struggle to keep using it. And some people want to teach it well. Each calls for a different kind of training.

### Corporate AI training

For HR, L&D and business leaders

A demonstration makes sense, but applying it at work is harder. Bring your team’s documents, tasks and workflows into the classroom to practise getting started, checking results and knowing when human judgement is needed.

### AI trainer training

For aspiring trainers, practitioners, consultants and training teams

Using AI yourself and helping someone else learn it are different skills. Work on course design, exercises and facilitation to turn your professional experience into a session others can follow.

## Connect the session to the next working day.

01

### Start with the work

Identify repetitive, time-consuming or error-prone tasks worth addressing.

02

### Practise with relevant material

Try documents and scenarios close to the work, then check the results.

03

### Leave with a next step

Identify what to keep using, what needs practice and where judgement still matters.

## Different settings. Practical learning in each.

ABOUT SAM

## The person doing the work. That’s where I start.

From executive assistant to AI product manager to corporate trainer, I have kept returning to the same question—how can we help people do their work better?

I co-founded Adaptig and lead its Academy. My training starts with a real working situation, gives people room to try things for themselves, and helps them bring that learning back to their teams.

FEEDBACK

## What did people take away?

In the words of organisers, clients and participants.

> We were lucky to have such an impressive expert who is also a gifted teacher. With my 35 years of teaching experience at HKU, I think I'm qualified to say so.

— Participant, 35 years teaching at HKU · July 2026

> Thank you once again for delivering such a fantastic AI workshop for the College fellows. The feedback has been excellent, and several attendees have asked me for your contact information.

— Client contact, The College of Surgeons of Hong Kong · 10 September 2026

> More than an introduction: we worked hands-on with tools and platforms we had never used before. His calm, steady voice also conveyed his professionalism and reliability as a teacher.

— Training coordinator, Chow Tai Fook · translated from the Cantonese original · 16 January 2026

> Sam explained how to use AI for social media posts, images and short-video copy in a practical, easy-to-understand way.

— Organiser, LIFECHANGERS · translated from the original · 15 September 2026

> Samuel explained things clearly. I really liked the computer-lab style of class: practising during the session makes it easier to remember.

— Participant, public AI course · translated from the original · March 2025

> Sam’s teaching approach builds from simple to more advanced material and accommodates different students’ needs.

— Participant, public AI course · translated from the original · September 2025

> We can set up a dedicated agent and reduce repeated input.

— Participant, Garden · translated from the original · 7 January 2026

> After the no-code class, I successfully built a website and a bot, including the domain. It helped me a lot.

— Participant, No-Code class · translated from the original · November 2025

> I strongly felt that the instructors taught AI with passion. Sam stood out most to me because he was experienced and professional. He was very familiar with the processes he taught, such as building websites, vibe coding, using Stripe and buying a website. They were very useful. I wholeheartedly recommend this course!

— Participant, AI Agent & No-Code Lv 2 · translated from the original · September 2025

> I absolutely loved this lesson—very useful! Sam did a fantastic job explaining NotebookLM using a real-life example, making it easy to understand since we encounter similar situations all the time. Additionally, his insights and logic on how the build up our working system integrates with our real work environment were truly impressive.

— Participant, AI audio-to-text workshop · February 2025

## Before we begin

### How is the training designed?

We start with your team’s work, experience and goals. Then we agree the format, group size and examples. This can be a single workshop or a series of sessions.

### Which formats, lengths and languages are available?

Anything from a 30- or 45-minute talk or panel, a three-hour hands-on module and full-day or two-day workshops, to a series of sessions over several weeks, on-site or online. Taught in Cantonese or English, with Traditional Chinese or English materials. Mandarin sessions can be discussed separately.

### How should we compare AI training proposals?

Look beyond the course outline: ask the provider for one complete classroom exercise, meaning the material learners receive, the work they must produce and the criteria the trainer uses to assess it. [Corporate AI training in Hong Kong: five questions to ask a provider](https://hyperfocusam.com/blog/five-questions-corporate-ai-training-hong-kong/)

### How are fees calculated?

By session length, group size and the amount of content adaptation required. We agree the scope first, then you receive a written quotation.

## Where are you getting stuck?

Getting a team started, making AI part of everyday work, or preparing to teach it? Tell me where things stand. We can work out the next step from there.
