The Final Countdown!

The countdown doesn't work if the event start date is set to TBD

The AI conversation has shifted from experimentation to implementation and measuring performance. Across Atlanta, organizations are embedding AI to improve business processes, customer experiences, and data systems, but implementation is also revealing some issues about cost, culture, and complexity.

Join Axios Live in Atlanta for a reception exploring how local companies and institutions are adopting AI to transform their work in business, manufacturing, government and education. We'll examine what’s scaling, what’s struggling, and how leaders are navigating real-time challenges and celebrating successes.

6:30pm - 7:10pm ET | Mainstage conversations
