Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing everything about our lives, our work and our businesses.

We are being told that every day by media and experts everywhere. But what does that really mean for us, here in the Bay of Plenty, in 2024?

Join us for a late afternoon/early evening session of expert insights, practical experience and lively discussion on the nature and development of AI, hosted by RHUBARB, a network of Tauranga's major technology users and service providers. The session will be followed by the opportunity to have a social chat with some nibbles and drinks

We have a mix of industry experts sharing their perspectives, with a focus on getting behind the hype and down to practicalities – now and for the near future. Expect robust discussion, diverse opinions and plenty of opportunity to ask questions and share your thoughts.
