Over two days, you’ll learn where AI can save your team meaningful time, where it won’t help, what tools are worth your attention, what can safely be ignored, where to start first, and how to avoid expensive mistakes. You’ll leave with a practical plan tailored to your business, not someone else’s.
All times shown are Central Time (CT), the local time at the venue in Rogers, Arkansas. Times are fixed to the venue's clock and do not change based on where you are viewing this page.
