September 4, 2026/

MISSOULA, Mont. - On Thursday, September 3, the CubCloud AI team led a combined "AI
Foundations / Working with Agentic AI" hands-on workshop on the third day of
hands-on workshops at the Montana AI Summit at the University of Montana.
The session was taught together by Joshua Rhines, Founder and CEO;
Brandon Smith, Chief Technology Officer; Azlyn Caldwell, Chief Research Officer;
and Justin Estrada, Chief Software Officer. It ran in the Todd Building after
two conference days in the University Center Ballroom (Sept. 1-2).
"We spent Thursday morning sharing tools and ideas with folk from education,
government, business, and beyond. There's one thing Montana is not short on:
great people and great ideas," said Rhines.
CubCloud AI was a partner of the free statewide summit, organized by UM
Information Technology with Montana High Tech Business Alliance, Craton
Consulting, AccelerateMT, Blackfoot Communications, and AIFluency.ai.
CubCloud's piece was practical: open a laptop, work the tools, leave with
something usable.
CubCloud AI builds AI systems and tools on hardware it owns and operates
in Montana. The company is based at 400 West Broadway St., Suite 102 in
downtown Missoula.
