What does AI actually mean for the way we work, lead, and grow? That's the conversation we're having — and we'd love you to be part of it.
WID and Uber are joining forces for an evening of thought-provoking talks and genuine connection. Whether you're deep in the world of AI or just starting to navigate it, this is a space to learn, ask questions, and meet people who get it.
