  Bring your lunch and join us for a virtual BUZZ session about artificial intelligence and prospect development!

  This discussion follows two virtual lunch & learn events in March and April: Safely Leveraging AI for Donor Segmentation and Analysis hosted by Eric Molho, Principal and Consultant at Bon Partners, and How to Make Generative AI Work for You hosted by Bethany Andorfer Morely, Director of Prospect Strategy and Research at West Chester University Foundation.

  Our virtual BUZZ sessions are moderated discussion forums where guest input is encouraged. In this edition, we will review key learnings from the March and April presentations and open the floor to questions and insights from all participants.
