Expert Series Committee
The HiPower Expert Series is a set of sessions for HiPower alumni where experts from within HiPower, our Sponsors and our greater network speak to us on current topics in technology, society, and business. It is an opportunity to share our knowledge, promote our expertise, and continue to build bonds among our network.
