AI in South Florida: From the 80s to the Edge of Tomorrow

🚀 Another insightful morning session at the South Florida CTO Club!

We had the honor of hosting Pete Martinez, and he absolutely captivated the room. For a full hour, we were immersed in his insights on IBM and Boca history, AI stories of the past and present, the emerging business models, and the complex intersection of healthcare, regulation, and AI adoption.

Pete, Chair of the Data Science & Research Faculty at Miami University and a key figure in multiple companies, continues to be a driving force in the South Florida tech ecosystem. Even 18 years into “retirement.” His support for what we’re building with the CTO Club is both humbling and energizing.
This might have been our best event yet. The energy, collaboration, and momentum in South Florida’s tech community are truly inspiring.

Onward and upward!
