Part 1 Q&A
This is yet another reason why ATEF is such a highly differentiated event. Jensen Huang, CEO of NVIDIA, does not conduct one-on-one meetings with his direct reports. Instead, he communicates with his executive team collectively, sharing information and feedback with everyone simultaneously to ensure equal access to information and empower his team. In the same spirit, speakers from Part 1 will come back to the stage to engage in a group Q&A with the audience in the driver’s seat.
12:30 PM to 1:45 PM
Full-service lunch along with the very best coffee and chocolates that you can find in NYC.
