## About

Eighty-nine percent of executives say knowledge workers are moving faster with AI, but only 6% can point to a specific, measurable payoff, according to Atlassian's research. This evening is about what's in that gap.
Join a small room of AI and IT decision-makers after work for drinks, candid conversation and a program you won't find at a typical tech conference.
A different kind of AI event
VentureBeat's Editor and Chief, Matt Marshall, presses leaders from Atlassian, Snowflake and WGU on what's really happening as AI reshapes their teams: where the promise matches their experience and where it doesn't. Then the floor opens to you. Come ready to share, push back and ask the hard questions. Afterward, keep the conversation going over food and drinks.
You'll leave knowing what's actually working, from the people making it work.
Thursday, Nov 12 · Doors 5:00 PM · Program 5:30 PM · Networking, food and drinks until 8:00 PM
