The Power of State and Local: How Cities and States Spur Innovation

How to Optimize Human Biology:  Where Genome Editing and Artificial Intelligence Collide

Join the Science and Technology Innovation Program and SeedAI for a panel event on the important role and leadership that states and cities will play in the growth and governance of AI. We'll explore how state and local decisions influence the growth of entrepreneurship and AI ecosystems, the impact that AI will have directly on communities and individuals, and what communities will need to build and grow tech hubs. The event is an official side event of SCSP's AI Expo for National Competitiveness, a major convening of tech leaders and those interested in or touched by emerging technologies from around the world.
