SUMMARY:Misinformation Meetup—Let’s Do Something About It!
DESCRIPTION:Misinformation\, and disinformation are growing problems in society\, contributing to health risks (e.g. false information about vaccines)\, societal divides and polarization\, and misinformed views on issues of race\, gender\, and more. We’re not going to solve the problems in one evening\, but each of us can do little things to help. We will have some experts in misinformation\, and we’ll mingle\, discuss\, ideate\, and close the night with people’s best ideas for how individuals can help\, and what ideas researchers and companies (maybe a new startup?) should explore. Come join us for this great in-person Austin Forum discussion event.

SUMMARY:Accelerated Introduction to AI/Machine Learning
DESCRIPTION:AI approaches based on machine learning (ML) methodologies are experiencing explosive growth in adoption\, usage\, and results — enabled by the corresponding increases in digital data generation and availability and in cost-effective computational power including GPUs and accelerators. \nThis workshop will accelerate understanding of the entire ML process by using prepared scripts\, data\, and codes\, and the ‘cooking show’ method of initiating steps but then quickly moving to completed versions of each step. It will provide hands-on experience with a classical machine learning problem and a deep learning problem\, emphasizing context and understanding of the process–not just tools and techniques–through these scripts and steps.

SUMMARY:Tech Idea to Tech Startup presented by the Austin Forum
DESCRIPTION:It is easy to get excited about the possibility of starting a successful tech company—especially in Austin—and to dream about possibilities of becoming a household name or being acquired by the Googles or Apples of the tech world. However\, turning a great tech idea into a viable tech company with impact and success requires more than an idea and hard work. It also requires a comprehensive business plan\, sufficient funding\, an effective development team\, great marketing and sales staff\, intellectual property protection\, effective management\, careful accounting\, and of course\, customers. So\, while most tech company founders’ success stories start with an idea\, a community need\, or a pivot from another venture\, these success stories depend on much more than that initial idea/need.\n​\nJoin us for a special Austin Forum event to learn it takes to build on a great tech idea and launch a great tech company. We will have experienced speakers and panelists from incubators\, venture capital funding firms\, IP firms\, accounting firms\, and more\, all sharing their expertise and lessons learned\, and answering your questions.
