SUMMARY:Prompt & Circumstance: A Startup Maine Happy Hour
DESCRIPTION:​Everyone’s talking about AI. The hype\, the fears\, the progress\, the challenges. Fewer people are talking about what it actually looks like on a Tuesday afternoon in a real job. Prompt and circumstance if you will… \n​Join us for a fall happy hour at Root Wild to dig into just that. We’ll spend two hours doing two things: meeting each other\, and hearing an honest\, engaging conversation about how people across Maine are putting AI to work in their roles and their companies. \nRegister Here \n​Midway through\, Owen McCarthy\, Co-founder of MedRhythms\, will moderate a short panel with innovative leaders using AI in real ways in real jobs. No slides\, no jargon (hold us to this). Then we get back to the good part: talking to each other. Our panelists will stick around\, so bring your questions. \n​Our goal for every happy hour is simple. Everyone leaves with at least one new connection and one new insight to put to work Wednesday morning. \n​Who this is for: \n​Founders\, operators\, investors\, students\, the AI-curious and the AI-skeptical are all welcome. Whether you’re new to Maine\, new to the startup ecosystem\, new to AI\, or an old friend of Startup Maine\, join us. \n​Speakers: \n​We asked Owen McCarthy\, a longtime friend of Startup Maine\, which leaders in Maine are using AI in the most innovative ways in their roles and their companies. He’s moderating\, and this is his starting lineup. \n\n\n​Owen McCarthy (moderator): Co-Founder & Senior Advisor\, MedRhythms\, Inc. & Board Member\, First Light Works \n\n\n​Nicole Bradick: Global Head of Innovation\, Factor \n\n\n​Ryan Low: Vice Chancellor for Finance and Strategic A.I. Integration\, University of Maine System \n\n\n​Christopher Reuter: Board Member\, Trailmix Labs & Head of Marketing\, Spectrum Security \n\n\n​Chris Marshall: Principal Managing Partner\, GreenMars Real Estate Services \n\n\nRegister Here
