About Tech Summit.

Thank you to all who joined us at one of the largest IT expo halls in Charlotte. We enjoyed educational sessions, including featured keynotes, Matt Britton, author of Generation AI, and Tim Quinlan, Managing Director & Senior Analyst at Wells Fargo.

In addition to continued education, people found themselves enjoying time with their peers in technology. It was a great time getting everyone into one room, learning from one another and sharing ideas.
‍
We can't wait to see you again next year!
