Talent AI Lounge: Kickoff for the Future of Hiring (with a little sparkle 🥂)

​What if a "networking event" felt more like a great conversation with friends? 

​Join the Talent AI Lounge kickoff to connect with Talent & People leaders, share ideas, and shape the future of hiring with AI! 💥

​And, it happens to be the host's birthday 🥂, so we’ll be adding a little extra sparkle — because the best conversations happen when we bring our whole selves, work, personal, and everything in between, into the room.

​This event will be community-focused with no sponsors, no pitches; just real conversations.
