Imagine & Automate
A cross-industry look at how automation is transforming work — straight from the people building and running it.
Automation is not coming, it is already here. This focused panel brings together hands-on practitioners from across Connecticut’s key industries to talk candidly about what automation looks like on the ground: what is working, what is not, and what is next. No slides. No sales pitches. Just a real conversation with people who have actually done the work — moderated to keep it sharp, with Q&A open to the audience.
