100+ attendees for the @paccmdc Business Summit - the biggest event of the year for the Chamber. A jam packed day full of sessions on topics like the future of business, evolving ourselves as leaders, and insights on the regional economy. Lots of great networking with founders, operators, executives all coming together in the spirit of helping each other grow. I had the honor of putting together the panel on “The Age of AI” with @lion.teacher @drrenetta @gage.javier What I loved most was how practical the panel was… Not high level theory, but how small businesses can ACTUALLY use AI to make money. As with any event, there were a few late nights preparing for this one. But seeing the engagement from the crowd, the conversations after, and the connections formed… It made it all worth it. Huge thank you to the @paccmdc team who put this together. Impactful speakers like @smartdrivenrona @xxdennis_amorxx who pulled the curtain back on what it takes to build and scale a successful business in uncertain times. Sponsors and vendors like @prudential @thesewinglabva @dentonsglobal @mdpremierexteriors @the_only_khanhnguyen @capitalsake @goodconversion.marketing @lvlup.strategies @canlastproductions who came out to support the summit in a major way… The incredible @allproreels team led by @booobah who captured all of the special moments from the day… And all the attendees who made the day so special. Grateful to all who supported & so excited to seeing what’s next!
