What is AI & Your Agency like, and what will you get out of it? Here’s what a few previous attendees had to say…
“AI & Your Agency was everything and more. It was wonderful to get into a room with folks and talk all things AI - the good, the bad and the ugly. This is a technology that isn't going away so how do we better prepare ourselves? With this conference that's how. I feel better equipped to further integrate AI into our Agency's practice. I have a basis for when I speak on the topic both technically and contextually and have started putting some of what was discussed into practice. Thank you Bureau of Digital.”
— Milagros Montalvo, Director of Creative Operations at Backpack Interactive
"The Bureau does it again with their first "immersive" subject matter event. It was inspiring to learn of the AI tools that are useful NOW, and some that will become useful very soon. I was able to come back and share that information with my team and give them strategic direction for how these tools can benefit our agency, and ultimately, our clients."
— Jason Clark, Chief Marketing Officer at eResources
