Panel 2: “The Future of The Tech Revolution” panel will be moderated by Maneet Ahuja, CNBC’s Hedge Fund Specialist and “Squawk Box” Producer.

Panel 3: “Should You Catch the Bitcoin Wave or Stay on Shore?” will address the staying power of bitcoin.

Morgan Stanley’s Chief Executive declared yesterday that bitcoin is “more than just a fad.” On the other hand, hedge fund legend Ray Dalio said last week that “bitcoin is a bubble.” Our soon to be announced panelists debate how far Bitcoin can climb, or fall.

Panel 4: “How Businesses Can Take Advantage of Artificial Intelligence NOW” will educate attendees on how A.I. can help increase revenue in the near future.

You can’t open a business publication without reading how Artificial Intelligence will transform the economy. But for many, A.I. is a confusing and intimidating maze. Our soon to be announced panelists discuss ways A.I. can strengthen revenue streams, or create entirely new ones.
