Generative AI has captured the public’s imagination because it makes data and AI more accessible to people of varying job roles and experience. Yet for many organizations, putting AI into practice and generating trustworthy insights remain huge challenges.

The best place to learn how to build value with AI is SAS Innovate, the data and AI experience for business leaders, technical users and SAS partners.

This in-person event, April 16-19 at the ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, will feature more than 200 sessions, including in-depth breakouts, interactive roundtables led by MIT Technology Review, hands-on workshops and engaging demos.

“Innovation is at the core of how SAS serves its customers, and that’s what SAS Innovate celebrates,” said Jennifer Chase, Chief Marketing Officer at SAS. “But this event is more than a celebration. It’s a workshop for applying AI in your organization. It’s a showcase for the latest data and AI technologies from SAS and its partners. And it’s a hub for networking with people in all types of roles and industries from around the world.”
