The Configur AI Podcast

Speaking Your Language

Less hype, more help. The Configur podcast on getting actual return on AI investment

Speaking Your Language is a Configur podcast about implementing AI in your business to deliver real results.

Host Marco Oliver, CEO of Configur, brings over eight years experience in the AI space. Each episode he sits down with AI specialists, sector experts and clients to unpack their experience of AI transformation, what worked, what didn't, and how to get an actual return on AI investment.

This isn't a show about tools. Marco digs into what Configur preaches in practice: getting to the heart of the problem before reaching for the technology. Done right, that approach reduces AI spend rather than inflating it, because it addresses the core pillars that decide whether transformation succeeds. People. Data. Use cases and USP. Security and governance. Measuring implementation.

It's a no-nonsense conversation built to help small and medium businesses work out how to implement AI the right way.
