Please join us for Accelerating Ohio's Data-Driven Future, a one-day event hosted by Snowflake on October 6th in Columbus, OH. 

This event will bring together leaders from the State of Ohio and the City of Columbus to share best practices on data modernization, analytics, AI and digital service transformation.

Speakers will offer real-world insights into their agency's journey—whether sharing how they've already adopted Snowflake, or how they're currently planning and thinking about their data modernization.

Following the main event, there will be a hands-on session designed to enable teams to work directly in a Snowflake environment, integrate data, build secure data pipelines and generate actionable insights tailored to real-world challenges.
