As AI reshapes the tech industry, how do we ensure women have the opportunity to lead, build, and benefit from what's next?
Join WOMEN x AI on November 12 for an evening of connection, conversation, and collective action.
We're bringing together women working across AI and technology, founders, executives, community leaders, and allies to explore the opportunities and challenges ahead.
How do we create more pathways for women to lead in AI? What opportunities are emerging as the industry evolves? And how can our communities work together to open more doors?
