Gathering the Minds on Talent and AI

And, in the domain of revenue teams built for AI, movers and shakers like Heidi Jannenga from WebPT are taking the stage alongside a solid roster of investors.
By the afternoon, they'll throw an interesting twist into the mix with "Talent Match," linking up candidates and eager hires through speed dating-like rounds. Imagine matching innovation to opportunity at breakneck speed—feels like the foundation builders of Arizona are taking notes from the dating playbook on networking.
