Last week, a few of our young professionals were presented the amazing opportunity to attend the #DellTechWorld conference in Las Vegas! Check out this clip of our young professionals joining the CEO of Dell Technologies, Michael Dell on stage during his incredible Keynote Address
A few of the conference highlights included hearing the stories of people like Ing. Katya Echazarreta (the first Mexican-born woman in space), Lisa Ling (renowned journalist), Neil Degrasse Tyson (Astrophysicist and writer), Zak Brown (CEO of McLaren), and more! Our team also had the privilege of testing and demonstrating the capability of AI using Dell’s AI-generated mock interview tool, Tomás.
Thank you to Cara Borawski, Carly Tatum, Kanon Hile, and Jamila Cowan from Dell for their partnership and hard work in putting this incredible experience together and allowing Hopeworks to participate.
