Project Voice kicks off with keynotes from Amazon and super-developer Nick Schwab, who was featured by CNN for earning enough as a voice dev to pay for his new Tesla. Breakout tracks across Marketing, Healthcare, Storytelling, Smart Home, Education, and Alexa Special Sessions will provide attendees with a vast range of real-time information on the state of Alexa's ecosystem as well as the voice landscape in general. An afternoon workshop from Voiceflow, plenary sessions from a 5th grader using Alexa to create skills, a panel on VC investment in the space, and a talk from a woman pleading with Amazon to change Alexa's name round out an eye-opening day.

An afternoon workshop from Adva Levin (Pretzel Labs) is on the docket as the day concludes, yielding to the Project Voice Awards Gala which begins shortly thereafter, honoring best-in-class achievement from across the world in voice tech and AI.

Thursday of Project Voice is essentially its own standalone tech conference, starting with keynotes from Samsung, Voicebot.AI's Bret Kinsella, and a panel of technology journalists who cover voice and AI. Project Voice's "contrarian speakers," industry veterans Susan Hura and Phillip Hunter, give a marquee talk called "Why Voice Tech Sucks," followed by a panel of Samsung's Premiere Bixby Developers that will showcase emerging opportunities within voice's newest ecosystem. Breakout tracks include a Bixby Developers track, Voice + Retail, Voice + Automotive, Voice + Healthcare, Voice + Money, Voice + Gaming, and Samsung Bixby Special Sessions. A high-profile panel on the future of voice as an open landscape precedes Kane Simms' (host of VUX World) closing keynote.
