Some attendees at our past AI workshops at the All Things AI conference.

One Day. Real Skills. Your Region.

Why Keystone

AI adoption is a leadership problem before it is a technology problem. This summit gives Central Pennsylvania's leaders the education and the network to drive successful outcomes — effectively and responsibly.

Built for Leaders

This is not a developer conference. It is built for executives, educators, and government leaders — no technical background required.

Actionable Training

Six hours of hands-on AI for Leaders training with Mark Hinkle. You leave with frameworks you can apply Tuesday morning.

Central PA Network

Spend the day with the region's business, education, and government leaders — then keep the conversation going at the evening social with drinks and heavy hors d'oeuvres.

Responsible AI

Governance, policy, and practical guardrails are built into the curriculum — so you can move fast without putting your organization at risk.

Proven Team

Produced by the team behind All Things AI — the Southeast's biggest AI for business conference — in partnership with the Technology Council of Central Pennsylvania.

World-Class Venue

Hosted at Harrisburg University of Science and Technology in downtown Harrisburg, steps from the Capitol.

From Our Past Events

Real people, becoming AI fluent.

The Keystone AI Leadership Summit comes from the team behind All Things AI — the Southeast's biggest AI for business conference. These rooms show what the training looks like: business professionals, government leaders, and educators building skills they use at work the next morning.

Attendee Reviews

What Attendees Say About Our Training

4.7of 5

224 reviews from Mark Hinkle's AI workshops and trainings across The AIE Network — the same instructor and curriculum coming to Harrisburg.

This is the best day I've spent on learning in a long time. As a complete non-techie, I've already started building my first app using Manus. This event gave me the confidence I needed to get started, even as a person with zero coding experience.

Laura Briscoe

Sr. Manager, Curation to Execution · Mayo Clinic

As a COO of a medium sized company, the training was perfect for my role and current skillset. Being able to render an updated website to my team using Manus in about 10 minutes was an amazing experience.

Nick Chae

COO · Danner Corporation

This is ESSENTIAL information for everyone interested in the future of business. Mark delivered clear, actionable and novel techniques — truly essential information delivered authentically by a top domain expert.

Gregg Gerdau

Managing Partner · Matador Advisors

Mark Hinkle is a trusted guide who gives a straightforward understanding of AI tools, plus some frameworks to think with and lively stories to keep it interesting.

Brian Moynihan

Director of AI & Automation Projects · Duke University

Mark's AI workshop was incredibly insightful. He broke down complex AI topics into clear, actionable takeaways that felt immediately relevant to real world enterprise challenges.

Janna Joyner

Clinical Project Manager · Abbott

I genuinely didn't expect to walk away with tools I could use the same day — but I did. Every manager, operations professional, and knowledge worker should attend this training. We had 10 members from our marketing team attend.

Amy Plahuta

Marketing Specialist, Global Marketing Ops PM · Clinisys™

Being in Mark Hinkle's class advanced me from novice to confident experimenter and shifted my perception of how and what I need to be doing right now. Unlike most training, there was no part of the curriculum during which I checked out.

Leila Nawaz

Sr. Support Engineer · Nasuni

Mark was phenomenal at providing insight about the things we can do using AI to augment our productivity. This course is of value to anyone working in any industry.

Michael Pang

Director of Project Management · Omicron Media

The Business Professionals Workshop was a standout — learning how to build a website in under 15 minutes using AI was truly eye-opening. I'm already looking forward to attending again.

Hima Kondapaneni

Product Manager · U.S. Bank
