Full Summary: No summary paragraph submitted.

Speakers: Greg Mize and Celeste Mercer, Atlanta Braves

Technology continues to enhance how baseball fans consume the game they love. Whether evolving the at-ballpark experience, or finding new ways to tell immersive stories about the players, teams, and more, the Atlanta Braves value the role of technology and are looking to further expand their position as a technology leader throughout Major League Baseball.

For Thursday's Think Tank, join representatives of the Braves as they kick-off a partnership with Georgia Tech to create a STEM curriculum to present to students at the first annual "STEM Day" at Turner Field. Additional topics outside of STEM will also be discussed.
