Innovation starts here. We’re celebrating the success of the first-ever UC RAISE conference, where over 200 local students explored the transformative potential of AI and robotics at the 1819 Innovation Hub.
The 2nd annual RAISE conference was a resounding success, bringing together over 200 students from 10 local schools for a day of inspiration, robotics, and cutting-edge AI exploration. This wouldn't have been possible without our collective "Next Lives Here" spirit.
Thank you for bringing your energy and curiosity. Seeing you engage with AI and robotics reminds us why we invest in the innovators of tomorrow. You are the reason we do this.
Your investment provides the resources necessary to fuel this revolution. A special thanks to:
University of Cincinnati (Digital Technology Solutions & 1819 Innovation Hub)
