Making the Connection
Carolina Recchi | Founder and Co-CEO of EdSights
In a time where enrollment and a global pandemic continues to pose challenges for higher education, the ability for campuses to address retention and the basic needs of students continues to be a growing concern. Student data can tell us a powerful story but leaders are challenged to know the right data to collect and what to do with it. In this session, Carolina Recchi, Founder and Co-CEO of EdSights, will shed light on insights directly from students and share the power of conversational AI in improving student wellness, retention, and predicting those at-risk.

C3X
In his first year of university, Ben Nemtin was unexpectedly hit with a depression that forced him to drop out. In an attempt to feel more alive, he created the world’s greatest bucket list with his three best friends. They borrowed a rickety old RV and crisscrossed North America, achieving the unthinkable. And most importantly, every time they accomplished a dream, they helped a complete stranger cross something off their bucket list. From playing basketball with President Obama to having a beer with Prince Harry, from reuniting a father and son after seventeen years to surprising a young girl with a much-needed bionic arm—Ben’s bucket list quest has inspired millions to thrive personally and professionally.
