Artificial Intelligence is transforming the security industry, and startups are at the forefront of leveraging the latest technology to push the bounds of what’s possible. When it comes to novel concepts like blockchain, emerging capabilities in quantum computing, or the increasing ubiquity of AI and ML, what is hype vs what is truly transformative and still practical?

The MIT Club of Northern California is hosting a reception during the RSA Conference on the evening of February 26th to engage startups, founders, innovators, MIT alumni, and other members of the security community for an evening of intelligent conversation and technology demonstrations in an intimate setting. The event will also feature pitches from innovative startups to kickstart the discussions.

Sponsorship

Sponsors will be given a booth during the event to network with attendees, put up a standing display, distribute marketing materials, or give tech demonstrations. Sponsors will also be given an opportunity to give a short 1-2 minute pitch to the audience at the beginning of the event to seed the conversations that will happen during the networking portion.

Ahead of the event, sponsors will be featured in event flyers and in announcements about the event.

Refreshments will be served. The agenda and venue are still being finalized.
