"Power Play" A Pro Golf Networking Experience: Leaders in the AI Eco-Syste

February 29 - 40 Executives • Sold out • Invite only

Power Play was a sold out, invitation-only indoor golf networking opportunity for Canadian leaders. This event focused on the key players building and governing the ecosystem behind AI, spanning data centres, energy and grid, municipalities and permitting, law, risk, compliance, and regulation. It’s designed to connect decision-makers who rarely end up in the same room, in a relaxed, high-trust setting that’s genuinely worth your time.

​Throughout the evening, we enjoyed food and drinks while rotating through bays with hands-on coaching from pro golfers and elite long-drive athletes.

​The "Power Play" series

​This is the inaugural event of the Power Play Winter Golf Series (Feb, March, April), with a focus on conversation versus competition along with the opportunity to see some world class hitters in action. Contact us to get involved in the next one.
