See What's Actually Working in AI Right Now

A virtual event series for senior data, AI, and business leaders featuring presentations on AI initiatives in the real world and live awards voting.

What to Expect

Join your peers for a virtual event built around one question: What's actually working in AI right now?

No vendor pitches. No theory. You'll hear 4–5 organizations present real AI initiatives — the business problem, the solution, the measurable results, and the honest lessons learned. Then you vote live to help determine which two advance to compete at the national TDWI AI Impact Awards at Transform in Anaheim.
