For those who are finding out about CHI – pronounced kai – for the first time, CHI is a place to see, discuss and learn about the future of how people interact with technology.
Top researchers from universities, corporations and startups from across the world, as well as the brightest student scientists, designers, and researchers are using the Beam to attend the conference!
Event Presence is proud to be part of this most important conference, and gathering of the world-wide HCI community in the heart of Silicon Valley.
Beams are being utilized throughout the conference including in specialized tracks as shown below.
