SUMMARY:CTIC Breakfast Club
DESCRIPTION:Breakfast Club meets for coffee and conversation. Topics range from recent news to ideas members have been exploring on their own\, and folks often bring a book\, article\, or product to share. Conversation regularly wanders into how technology is changing the way we live\, work\, and think—though it doesn’t always stay there\, and that’s part of the fun. The group draws together voices from business\, nonprofit\, and government backgrounds\, which keeps the discussion grounded but never quite predictable.

SUMMARY:Cork & Compute: AI and Wine Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Fruit notes and neural nets – oh my. \nAt Cork and Compute\, you’ll taste your way through a curated flight of three wines\, jot down your own flavor notes\, then see what AI makes of them. Jeannie Bird Baking Co’s Bernie Vogel will weigh in live alongside the machine — a little Error\, a little Terroir\, and a lot of good conversation in between. \nWine might be one of the most human things we make — grown\, crafted\, and argued over purely for the pleasure of it. Bringing AI into that room raises a fair question: what does it actually add\, and where does it just get in the way? By the end of the night\, you’ll walk away with an AI-generated snapshot of your own palate — but the real takeaway is a reminder that having a preference\, and trusting it\, is something worth celebrating. \nCharcuterie included. Bring a smart phone or request a device at registration. \nThis program is open to all. This event is presented in partnership with Jeannie Bird Baking Co. This program explores artificial intelligence tools and their practical\, everyday applications. Content is presented neutrally\, with a focus on foundational understanding rather than promotion of any specific product or platform.

SUMMARY:CTIC Breakfast Club
DESCRIPTION:Breakfast Club meets for coffee and conversation. Topics range from recent news to ideas members have been exploring on their own\, and folks often bring a book\, article\, or product to share. Conversation regularly wanders into how technology is changing the way we live\, work\, and think—though it doesn’t always stay there\, and that’s part of the fun. The group draws together voices from business\, nonprofit\, and government backgrounds\, which keeps the discussion grounded but never quite predictable.

SUMMARY:CTIC After Hours Alliance
DESCRIPTION:Pour a coffee\, settle in\, and get ready to talk shop. Think of it as Breakfast Club’s evening counterpart — same spirit of conversation\, just after hours. This informal gathering runs on one simple idea: good conversation is better with good company. Some sessions kick off from whatever’s making headlines; others start with a half-formed idea someone’s been chewing on and wants to think through out loud\, often sparked by a book\, article\, or gadget someone brings along to show off. No matter where it starts\, the conversation tends to land on the same big question: what does technology mean for how we live\, work\, and think? The room mixes folks from startups\, nonprofits\, government offices\, and everywhere in between — the common thread is genuine curiosity.\nCome one\, come all!
