🎉 Tech y Cultura: Sharing Stories – A Latinx Tech Celebration

Presented by: SOMOS.Tech in partnership with 🤝 soon to be announced

Join us for a vibrant half-day celebration honoring Hispanic Heritage Month! This hybrid event brings together Latinx professionals, allies, students, and community partners for a day of connection, learning, and cultural pride.

No AI or tech experience needed—we’ll introduce key concepts and ensure you walk away with hands-on experience creating your own AI agent and a custom template to take home.
