AI ScreenShare & Use Case Showcase
An unconference-style showcase where CIOs, CISOs, and IT leaders moved from talking about AI to showing AI.
Beyond the Slide Deck
The AI ScreenShare was a collaborative, interactive pre-conference session designed to move beyond theoretical discussions of Artificial Intelligence and into practical, real-world application. Rather than a traditional presentation format, it served as an "unconference" style showcase where participants shared the actual artifacts, workflows, and demonstrations they had developed using AI tools.
The goal was simple: put it up on the screen. Participants walked their peers through what they built, what worked, what didn't, and what they'd do differently. This was the session where the real learning happened.

Core Objectives
Peer-to-Peer Learning
Attendees saw exactly how colleagues at peer institutions were implementing AI in their specific environments. No vendor pitches — only real deployments from people facing the same constraints.
Artifact Sharing
The room moved from "talking about AI" to "showing AI." Participants shared tangible outputs: code reorganized by AI, automated reports, custom security scripts, and more.
Use Case Discovery
Emerging trends and successful patterns in AI adoption across higher education surfaced organically, giving every attendee practical benchmarks to bring back to their campus.
Format & Structure
Interactive Demos
Participants put their work up on the screen and walked the room through specific use cases — live demos of tools and presentations of completed AI-driven projects.
Unconference Style
The session was flexible and organic. Rather than overprogramming the time, it provided a dedicated space that acted as a catalyst for conversation — and the participants themselves shaped the flow.
Candid Conversation & Q&A
Some of the best moments came after the screen went dark — informal discussion about the nuances of releasing new tools and functionality, the real friction of institutional adoption, and what Carlos types into his Telegram chats late at night. (IYKYK.)
The Audience
The AI ScreenShare brought together 50 CIOs, CISOs, and IT leaders who were actively managing the integration of AI within their institutions. The intentionally small format ensured every participant had a chance to contribute, ask questions, and engage in real conversation — not just observe.
