Opening Networking Experience

The AI+HI Project kicks off with a welcome cocktail reception and seated dinner on Monday night to network with peers and establish new connections. Together, we'll set intentions for a transformative experience focused on collaboration, innovation, and growth. Join us in the Ballroom at The Ameswell Hotel from 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM for food, drinks, and great conversation.
