A Jam-Packed Day
We crafted a jam-packed day of content and networking. This year’s theme is AI … of course. We kick off the day with a keynote on AI and Startups in North Carolina’s Future and close it with a fireside chat on AI and the Future of Sports Viewership. In between, we have our inaugural Pod-Off, panels with many familar names, and pitches with the region’s leading startups.
We end the day awarding the pitch winner with a briefcase full of cash and then celebrate at a nearby after-party. Will it be a magically productive day for you? I suspect so!
