Off the Record: A Conversation on Enterprise AI in DC

​Join us on Wednesday, March 18 at 7pm at Albi in DC’s Navy Yard for an intimate dinner. Led by Michelin-starred chef Michael Rafidi and his team, the menu draws on the traditions of the Eastern Mediterranean, blending local ingredients with smoke, char, and bold, precise flavors — from beautifully executed mezze to dishes pulled straight from the wood-fired hearth, and a final sweet bite inspired by classics like knafeh.

​Throughout the evening, we’ll swap notes on how the government is taking new approaches to enterprise AI and what’s actually working (not just what’s hard). We'll have an honest, off-the-record conversation about how teams are making sense of enterprise AI initiatives that are driving real, measurable value. Nothing too formal; just great food and easy conversation with senior technology leaders from the private and public sector.

​Capacity is limited due to the space.
