The term "X Zone" was coined several years ago to describe the total conference experience where "X" stands for active. Even as speakers serve to stimulate the sight and mind, X Zone partners, majority of which are based in Georgia, engage the other senses with inventions and tasty tastings fueled by caffeine, of course!
A huge thanks to all our 2017 X Zone partners.
