FuturePS: AI Tech & Creative – March
Where technology, creativity, and community meet in Palm Springs.
FuturePS is an upscale, low-key social gathering for builders, founders, artists, educators,
and those curious about how AI and technology are reshaping life, work, and play in the desert. Designed for people
who care more about meaningful ideas than trendy buzzwords, it’s a space where depth matters more than hype,
and connection replaces traditional networking.
Expect good food, a drink in hand, better conversation, and a Spotlight Guest to spark something in the room.
No panels. No pitch decks. Just smart people actively thinking about what’s next — swapping real lessons, sharing new tools, and leaving with either a useful connection or a genuine a-ha moment.
Each event is intentionally small-format to create room for dialogue: founders unpacking what’s working (and what isn’t), creatives showing how AI is moving their process forward, educators exploring its impact in the classroom, and civic innovators imagining how technology can strengthen our communities. Whether you’re building the future or just curious about where it’s headed, FuturePS is your place to plug in.
March Spotlight Speaker: Chris Wilson
For March we welcome Chris Wilson, a Google technology executive and member of the Palm Springs Technology Steering Committee, for a deep dive into the new front lines of digital safety. With a career spanning years of leadership in infrastructure engineering to his current focus in the complex world of cybersecurity, Chris brings an expert’s lens to the intersection of security, privacy, and artificial intelligence.
In his talk, Chris will move beyond the headlines to address permanent digital climate change, a world where cyberattacks are now forecasted to cost over $10 trillion globally. He will discuss the evolving threat landscape, modern cybersecurity defenses, and some actionable steps you can take to protect yourself. Join us for a conversation on how we can innovate safely and build a more secure, connected Palm Springs together.
Plus, you’ll hear updates on the 2026 AI & Creativity Expo!
