✨ The WISH ✨ photos are here! We’re still riding the high of such an incredible event and memorable moment for our industry.
This year’s WISH event didn’t just sell out—it doubled in size compared to last year!
The atmosphere was electric, filled with inspiration, empowerment, and inclusivity. We’re already excited to see what’s in store for next year!
One of the standout moments of the day came from this year’s Dr. Lisa Su Woman of Innovation Award recipient, Dr. Ann B. Kelleher, with this quote:
“When you make mistakes or have a bad day, do you bounce like a tennis ball or like an egg?”
Our keynote speaker, Christine King, the first female CEO of a semiconductor company, captivated the audience with her incredible story of resilience and strength, reminding us that the seeds of success are within us all.

💜Alexis Black Bjorlin, Vice President & GM, DGX Cloud, NVIDIA
💜 Deirdre Hanford, Chief Executive Officer & Trustee, Natcast.org
💜 Elif Balkas, Chief Technology Officer, Wolfspeed
