If you’re in North Carolina, or just passionate about the topic, consider coming to the NCCU 2024 Law and Technology Symposium and Summit October 10–11, 2024 at the Durham Convention Center. The symposium dives deep into generative AI and its impact on healthcare, while the summit offers a broader look at AI, data privacy, cybersecurity, emerging trends in tech policy, legal services regulation, and more.
