Tech on Tap: AI Tap Takeover with PMI SWVA

Join your favorite tech community at RBTC’s Tech on Tap: Tap Takeover. Starting this year, RBTC is giving the beloved social event ‘Tech on Tap’ a twist by bringing a barstool speaker element to the beloved series that connects the tech community at a post-workday social. Each Tech on Tap will cover a variety of technology topics and will start and end with networking. The speaker will hit the stage at 5p with just a mic, a pint, and a barstool.
