Emotion AI - Second Meetup

And we're back! This time in Foster City, where Konica/Minolta has generously offered to host the event at their Business Innovation Center.

As always, this will be an only-semi-technical meetup at the intersection of technology and emotion, drawing from disciplines within and outside of AI/tech. We had 45 attendees at our last meetup, and I'm excited to bring the series further south on the Peninsula!
