### Ville
`#Salt Lake City` 

## Description
This is not a polished panel.  
This is not what you see on LinkedIn.  
This is Real Talk.  
Join us for an evening of candid, unfiltered conversation with executives shaping the Utah tech scene.  
We spend our careers building, scaling, and optimizing. But behind every "polished" LinkedIn update is a series of pivots, hard-learned lessons, and the courage to start over.  
This event is inspired by Br33 Jon3s (CXO, ElizaChat) as she turns 30 and reflects on the mentors and leaders who influenced her career. We’re bringing those voices together on one stage for the conversations you don’t usually hear:  
The wins  
The missteps  
The moments that mattered more than their resumes  
Whether you are launching a new venture, navigating a career pivot, or simply looking for your "Version 2.0," this is your chance to learn from and mingle with tech leaders in a fun and relaxed setting. This event is open to all genders.  
Expect signature cocktails, refreshments, and a DJ dropping the beats for an evening of great conversation!  
This event kicks off The AI Collective’s global Humans in AI Week—with 100+ events happening worldwide.  
A special thank you to our sponsors for making this event possible: our marquee sponsor, ElizaChat; venue sponsor, HAVN; beverage sponsors, SunTrapp and VIDA Tequila; and music by DJ OKayyyCyrus.
