Why This Summit, Why Now
Nearly nine in ten Indiana organizations now report meaningful AI impact — but fewer than one in twenty are capturing most of what AI could already do for them. The gap between those numbers is the biggest opportunity in Indiana’s economy, and closing it is a talent problem, not a technology problem. The Talent Exponential brings Indiana’s employers together around the data, the playbook, and the people building the workforce for the AI economy.
