CTO Panel - The Winds of Change
Wednesday November 20, 2024 9:45am - 10:25am PST
Martin Luther King Jr Conference Room
After another year of political and economic uncertainty, budget cuts and restructures, we’re again inviting our technology leaders to share their thoughts on what the coming year looks like. Broadening our view to include game dev, TV and advertising as well as film production, we’ll be asking: What is happening at the intersection of creativity and technology? How healthy is the production pipeline? How is AI transforming their business? And what other technology opportunities – or challenges - are they facing?
