Building the Executive AI Playbook: How AI Will Power Your Association into the Future

Dates: Feb 05, 2025
Time: 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM (EST)
Location: 2611 South Clark Street, Arlington, VA 22202

Please note: This event is exclusive to C-Suite Executives of Associations and Non-Profits.


In June 2024 alone, 230 million people used AI apps. 

Since the advent of ChatGPT (a product that exploded OpenAI’s value to $80 billion), we have been subjected to a deluge of headlines and marketing hype about artificial intelligence changing the world as we know it. 

When it comes to the association space, change is indeed on the horizon, but not in a way that should inspire fear. 

In fact, if approached thoughtfully, artificial intelligence presents many opportunities to enhance member engagement, employee engagement, revenue, risk mitigation, and more. 

Industry experts Joanna Pineda (Matrix Group International) and Heinan Landa (Optimal Networks) will host a workshop session exclusively for association executives to empower you to identify and seize these opportunities in a practical, actionable way. 

This 2-hour event will include lunch, guided discussion, and networking. 

Learning objectives include:

  • How associations are using AI today
  • Key risks and opportunities to explore
  • How to incorporate AI into your strategic vision

Attendees will walk away with:

  • A co-built playbook to guide their organization’s AI strategy in the near term
  • Connections with 15 to 20 like-minded association executives
  • A full belly!

Plus, you are welcome to come work from the Matrix Group office before the event, after the event, or both to make it an executive co-working day! We have fast internet and plenty of working space – both private and public.
