At 6pm, you can choose between the Newcomers Meeting or the Networking Session. If you are a new member to PMI Atlanta, you do not want to miss the Newcomers Session to hear how we can help you achieve your goals with hands-on activities. Both sessions provide valuable networking opportunities!

Dinner will be served at 7pm while we review our Chapter Announcements. Dinner is family-style and includes a selection of appetizers, entrees, and desserts.

During the Keynote Presentation "Canyon Leaping Collaboration – Powered by XLeap", John J. Carroll, The Parker Wright Group, will showcase a glimpse into the XLeap technique, which can enable teams to work faster and more accurately. In this informative PMI presentation, participants will learn to facilitate everyday collaborations and decision-making towards mastering one of the most critical skills for project managers – teamwork. 

Ever experienced friction on a team? No worries. With this method, your team will be able to rise above friction and accomplish in minutes or hours what otherwise takes days or weeks. Join us for the presentation with plans to engage!

The Entertainment Forum presents "The Future of Digital Entertainment & The Creative Economy in Georgia" featuring Asante Bradford, Senior Industry Engagement Management at Georgia Center for Innovation.

Georgia has emerged as a significant player in the digital media (e.g., gaming) and digital entertainment industry, particularly in film and television production. The state's success in these areas provides a strong foundation for expanding into interactive entertainment. Attracting digital media companies and growing the interactive entertainment sector in the state of Georgia requires promotion, logistics and relocation support, and the identification of business development initiatives. This may include marketing campaigns, infrastructure investment, targeted tax incentives, etc. Asante will focus on current efforts to increase the economic impact of interactive entertainment for the State of Georgia that will attract and foster connections with digital media companies outside the state to relocate in Georgia thereby growing this rapidly expanding sector.

Be sure to join this forum to hear the latest in gaming and other entertainment in Georgia and take advantage of Asante's expertise and experience in bringing projects to Georgia.
