⚡Early Bird Tix for Dig South Tech Summit⚡
The 2025 Dig South Tech Summit theme is … drum roll please … New Frontiers in Technology, Business and Personal Growth.
We’re always entering a “new frontier,” right? But this time, the boy who cried “AI Wolf!” isn’t bluffing. Every day a new product release from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google or some other tech titan takes us one step closer to robot sentience (or at least a snazzy new text-generated marketing video.)
Dig South speakers, sponsors and attendees will dive deeply into AI/ML, of course, plus tracks including Supply Chain, Transportation, Energy, Sales, Marketing, Cybersecurity, Healthtech, Wellness and more.
Stay tuned for speaker announcements next week. The lineup is strong and we have a few slots left. Apply at digsummit.com.
As for new frontiers of our own, the Summit is adding stellar new programs:
⚡ $1,000,000 Pitch Opportunity
⚡ “Man vs. Machine” Live Sketchnoting
⚡ Investor-VIP Shindig
⚡ 30-Second AI Film Fest + Hackathon with CharlestonHacks
⚡ Charleston Women in Tech Mentor Matchup
⚡ Special Event Featuring Benjamin Wallace, Author of The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto: A Fifteen-Year Quest to Unmask the Secret Genius Behind Crypto, in partnership with Charleston Literary Festival
⚡ Spectacular new venue featuring 3 theaters plus an exhibitor hall in the Simons Center for the Arts at the College of Charleston
