Event Highlights - Anticipate 2024: AI’s Impact on Business and Productivity

In October 2023, Truelogic Software, Code and Theory, and On Discourse launched the very first session of the Anticipate Event Series.

The Anticipate event is an informal meeting for selected senior tech leaders from various industries to gather actionable insights, build connections, and prepare for anticipating emerging trends that can help them expand their businesses even further.

The event, held in New York for over 50 participants, provided an atmosphere for thought leaders, technology experts, and creative thinkers from renowned companies such as Google, Meta, and Microsoft, among others, to discuss the ongoing impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and gather key and actionable insights on how to use it to boost their companies' productivity in 2024.

Anticipate 2024 was instrumental in broadening the dialogue around AI and fostering an open culture of learning and collaboration within the technology sector.

Getting together with other tech professionals to deep dive into AI and themes surrounding it was a great way to meet those who are enthusiastic and excited about what the future holds. 

It also gave participants an occasion to broaden their horizons by stimulating thought on the topic and multiple viewpoints on where and how AI will drive impact and innovation in the IT industry and beyond.
