## **Paygent.ai Founder Krystal Little to Speak on AI Panel at Tampa Bay Tech Week**
#### Panel will explore real-world applications of artificial intelligence across business and operations
Tampa, FL — Paygent.ai today announced that Founder and CEO Krystal Little will participate as a panelist at Tampa Bay Tech Week, joining industry leaders in a discussion focused on the practical application of artificial intelligence in modern business environments.
Hosted as part of the AI Salon series, the panel will bring together operators, founders, and technologists to explore how AI is being implemented beyond theoretical use cases. The conversation will focus on where AI is delivering measurable value, how organizations are navigating adoption, and what business leaders should prioritize as the technology continues to evolve.
Little brings a unique perspective to the discussion through her work at Paygent.ai, a platform designed to bring transparency to payment processing. By leveraging artificial intelligence to analyze transaction data and fee structures, Paygent.ai helps small and mid-sized businesses better understand their costs and make more informed financial decisions.
“AI has the potential to simplify some of the most complex systems in business,” said Little. “But its value comes from how it’s applied. At Paygent.ai, we focus on using AI to create clarity — not complexity — so business owners can make confident decisions.”
The panel will also address broader themes around trust, transparency, and the role of AI in supporting — rather than replacing — human decision-making.
Tampa Bay Tech Week is a community-driven event series that brings together leaders across the region’s growing technology ecosystem. The event serves as a platform for knowledge sharing, collaboration, and discussion around emerging technologies shaping the future of business.
