Venue & Accommodations

Venue

The Conference will be held at the Georgia Tech Global Learning Center, located in Technology Square in the revitalized midtown Atlanta neighborhood. This vibrant, live-work-play environment has been transformed by the newly-renovated Biltmore and Sixth District Federal Reserve Bank, which complement nearby Atlanta landmarks like the Fabulous Fox Theatre and the corporate headquarters of Coca-Cola, BellSouth and Bank of America. Residential developments, restaurants and retail make the area a distinct community. Technology Square serves as the area's high-tech core while establishing a primary artery between the Georgia Tech campus and midtown across an enhanced 5th Street bridge.
