Description

​Come for the food, stay for the energy. We’re bringing together builders, founders, and future-shapers for a night that mixes real insight with unforgettable fun. The centerpiece? The Pie Debate Showdown — where sharp minds go head-to-head on the hottest AI topics while their teammates keep them talking (and chewing).

​What’s waiting for you:

  • ​Networking, food, and drinks with some of the most ambitious people in the city

  • ​Icebreakers designed to spark connections without the awkwardness

  • ​A keynote unveiling the AI Collective’s global story and the launch of our local chapter

  • ​The one-of-a-kind Pie Debate Showdown (AI x debate x pie = controlled chaos)

  • ​Community announcements and take-home slices to end the night

​Backed by DeepLearning.AI and hosted at UpStart Collective, this is your chance to be part of a movement that’s shaping the future of AI — and to say you were there when it all kicked off.

​​Please be advised: Unfortunately, space is very limited at these community events and we can not always accept everyone we would like to. If you are not accepted to this event, please keep applying! We appreciate your application tremendously and we are looking forward to seeing you at a future event very soon!
