SUMMARY:Ai for Diagnostic Imaging ( Virtual Event)
DESCRIPTION:Hospitals and imaging centers are beginning to use artificial intelligence (AI) for patient care\, but the cost and a lack of strategic direction are significant barriers to adoption. But as the data capture and analytics continue to advance more organizations are able to leverage AI for diagnostics and therapeutics. But today only about 1/3 of all organizations are using AI in imaging. This is likely due to a lack of understanding of how best to use current AI technology\, along with the associated costs\, labor\, and time attributed to employing the technology across multiple areas. \nWEBINAR DESCRIPTION\nThis webinar will focus on how to leverage best practices and IT accelerators to:\n• Mitigate cost\, as it remains the most significant barrier to AI adoption.\n• Help create organization direction for the adoption of AI\n• Build the necessary IT infrastructure\nOur speaker for this event is Mikunj Joshi\, Director of Healthcare/IoT Center of Excellence for AccionLabs. Mikunj will conduct an interactive Q&A with the audience designed to exchange thoughts and ideas.

SUMMARY:Sales Assembly Virtual Roadshow
DESCRIPTION:After 3 years of building a collaborative-based learning resource\, community & all-in-one platform for 120+ B2B revenue organizations in Chicago…Sales Assembly has gone national! To celebrate\, we’re kicking off the summer with our #ScaleSmarter Virtual Roadshow – a series of events featuring our industry’s foremost thought leaders\, plus rockstar panels of the top sales & revenue executives throughout 7 amazing tech ecosystems. \nThe #ScaleSmarter Virtual Roadshow isn’t about fluff\, over-discussed best practices\, or dated frameworks. This series is focused exclusively on bringing you the tactical strategies and learnings that all B2B tech companies can/should implement right now – Q2 2020 – to be positioned for significant\, strategic\, and smarter scale in the months & years to come. \nFor our Austin event\, our featured thought leader is Jake Dunlap\, CEO of Skaled Consulting and 15-year tech sales leader\, and he will be leading a discussion titled: “Building\, Coaching & Scaling Sales – the Next Chapter\,” followed by live Q&A. \nSales and Marketing organizations still using “old” (pre-2020) Go To Market strategies are now having a sobering realization that what worked previously doesn’t work today\, and won’t work tomorrow. Things like revenue engines based primarily on predictable revenue via lead inputs and outdated team structures resulting in constant front-line & executive leadership churn are doomed to fail. As B2B Tech organizations\, we have to take a new approach to scaling our G2M Strategies and our G2M Teams. Join Jake Dunlap as he reimagines how to effectively scale sales and marketing teams and implement sustainable G2M strategies built for adaptability and growth. \nFollowing Jake will be our panel discussion where we’ll dive into the most relevant strategies\, philosophies\, tools and tips as it pertains to scaling smart in 2020 and beyond. Our expert panel is made up of software leaders & revenue execs who are doing big things here in the Austin tech ecosystem: \nKatie Bullard\, President\, A Cloud Guru\nNils Marchand\, Vice President of Sales\, SecureLink\nDana Wright\, Managing Director\, MATH Venture Partners\nModerated by Matt Green\, Chief Revenue Officer\, Sales Assembly

SUMMARY:AI & Why It Will Transform Everything
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence (AI) is perhaps the most hyped technology trend in the world right now–and with good reason. The combination of highly capable algorithms\, exponentially increasing amounts of digital data\, and ever-increasing computational power have enabled tremendous successes in the development\, application\, and impact of AI in recent years. \nWe see or experience some of these daily: facial recognition in place of passwords\, conversational AI assistants (e.g. Alexa\, Siri) and chatbots\, detection of fraudulent credit cards charges\, improved recommendations for what to buy or watch next\, and much more. Companies now use AI to improve operational efficiencies\, predict possible maintenance issues\, optimize sales and marketing efforts\, and more. Perhaps most importantly\, AI is now poised to revolutionize healthcare and medicine\, mobility and transportation\, manufacturing and robotics\, finance\, national security\, and many of the fundamental needs of humanity and society. \nBut what is AI? What makes AI so powerful? Why is it so hyped and why is it considered disruptive\, transformative\, and revolutionary? (And is it?) What are the most important applications that of AI today and tomorrow?
