Get excited for a special in-person combo meetup with the Solopreneurs and In-House Creatives!
This joint October meetup will be around the topic of “AI In Our Industry,” featuring a panel discussion with freelancers and in-house creatives. We’ll dive into the ways in which we’re experiencing the gamut of AI tools in our workflows, projects, careers, and conversations among creative peers & our clients.
We’ll also encourage discussion among all attendees with Q&A to discuss their own experiences of AI in their roles/projects, as well as share their stances and thoughts on the various ways AI is finding its way further into our industry.
We’ve tackled this topic in various ways within our own circles and we thought this would be a fun new way to talk about it by bringing both groups together.
Join us in-person at Securian Financial in Saint Paul on Friday, October 9th from 2:30pm to 4:30pm.
And afterwards, folks can continue their conversations and catch-up over happy hour!
Please RSVP by Thursday, October 8, as we’d love to get a headcount of folks so our gracious hosts at Securian know how many guests to expect (*space is limited*).
Can’t wait to see you there!
