The 2024 W. L. Gore & Associates Keynote Presentation features Jana Eggers, a noted authority on AI, software product management and enterprise innovation, to share her expertise. In “AI: The Good, the Bad, the Beautiful,” Eggers will focus on the latest developments in the field of AI, potential threats posed by AI—both perceived and real—and the promise AI holds for the future.
Jana Eggers began her professional career at Los Alamos National Laboratory modeling electron transfer in conducting polymers using high-performance computing and artificial intelligence. After Los Alamos, she attended graduate school in computer science, and then left research to join the business world in 1994.
Her roles intermix software engineering, software product management, and general management. She has held technical and leadership roles at start-ups, like PTCG (supply chain optimization) and Apps.com (online applications), who have been bought by large enterprises, American Airlines and Intuit, respectively. Both acquisitions led to senior roles at the acquiring companies. Another small start-up she joined was Lycos, which grew to be an Internet search leader. Her career has taken her to Europe twice: to open the European operations for supply chain optimization for Sabre Group, and as CEO of Germany-based, sprd.net AG, one of the first mass-customization platforms on the Web.
Her focus and passion are bringing high-end technology to everyday problems. She’s a noted expert in artificial intelligence, software product management and development, and enterprise innovation.
Ms. Eggers holds a degree in mathematics and computer studies from Hendrix College, and has completed graduate studies in computer science at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
