Save the Dates! The fourth annual HBCU Technology Conference presented by HP will take place virtually September 10-12, 2024. The event will host tracks for the entire HBCU Campus: CIOs and IT Staff, Faculty & Staff, Executive Leaders, and Students.

This year’s theme is "Explore. Enhance. Empower. Shaping the future of AI at HBCUs." We will discuss Artificial Intelligence (AI) in higher education and explore AI topics of importance to HBCUs:

Policy and governance
Implementation and security
Teaching and learning solutions and use cases
Ethics and bias
How AI is impacting future of work trends
And more

The student experience, The Future of Work Academy (FOWA), is a program designed to help students imagine and prepare for their future work through three main activities:

Interactive Symposium. Virtual interactive workshops focused on skills needed for early careers. Each session will provide an opportunity for students to put what they learn to practical use.
Career Accelerator. The HP University Recruitment Team will share tools, strategies, and resources to help students strengthen their interviewing acumen and develop their professional persona. Students will be able to create their career profiles with HP and upload their resumes during registration.
Innovation Incubator. This year’s competition is a prompt-a-thon, an AI-focused case challenge where teams of HBCU students work collaboratively across all majors to develop a solution to the challenge and compete to win prizes. A summer learning journey will help prepare participants for the competition.

HBCU Students: Register today! Summer sessions for the FOWA Innovation Incubator begin on June 25!

Call for presentation proposals. HBCU IT Professionals, Faculty, and Staff are invited to submit peer presentation proposals by July 22. Visit our website to learn more. Register as "HBCU Faculty, Staff, IT, and Leaders" to submit your proposal.

Opportunities. If you are interested in being a presenter, HBCU campus champion, sponsor, or exhibitor for this year’s event, please email HBCUTechConference@hp.com.

We hope you will join us!
