LET'S LIFT. 🏋️\n\nLA Tech Week is packed with wellness events. Morning runs, yoga sessions, cold plunges, meditation, you name it. But where are the events for lifters?\n\nFor those who would rather start their morning under a barbell, welcome to the DON'T BE A FRANGO LIFTING CLUB: TECH WEEK EDITION.\n\nWhat the hell is a Frango?\nIn Brazil, frango means chicken. In gym slang, it's someone who's just going through the motions. Half reps. Phone between sets (sometimes during). The weight they know they can handle. They show up. They just aren't doing the work that matters.\n\nThe gym is one of the few honest rooms left. No one can do the work for you. Every rep, every excuse, every decision is yours. And so are the results you get. We believe that how you show up in the gym translates into how you show up at home, at work, and in life.\n\nAll of us can act a little frango sometimes. We all could use a push from each other to keep getting stronger and building the lives and companies we want. And the gym is the perfect setting for that. That's why we created this lifting club. To surround ourselves with people who push us to get stronger, think bigger, work smarter, and put our energy into what actually matters.\n\nThis isn't a pep talk session. No instructor. No guru. No kumbaya. Just iron, sweat, and people who won't let you be a frango.\n\nWe're taking the DON'T BE A FRANGO LIFTING CLUB on a tour of gyms across Los Angeles during Tech Week, bringing together founders, builders, and investors who get that how you train is how you build.\n\nBring your own program, train with a buddy, or show up solo and meet someone new. We'll help everyone connect. Just come prepared to work hard and have fun!\n\nThe schedule and access details are coming soon. RSVP to stay in the loop and join us for one workout or the entire week.

Here's how to survive.\n\nInvestors don't read your pitch — they triage it. With hundreds of decks competing for a handful of checks, they move through them the way a battlefield surgeon moves through patients: checking for a pulse, and moving on fast when they don't find one.\n\nAfter reviewing over 1,000 startup pitches, we've found that pulse is almost always the same thing: your problem statement. Not your team, not your tech, not your market size — though those matter too. If investors can't quickly tell what painful, budget-worthy problem you solve and for whom, they don't just lose interest. They start doubting the opportunity is real, and that doubt follows them through the rest of your pitch like a headwind, making even strong traction and revenue numbers harder to land.\n\nHere's the test: are you pitching a vitamin, or an antibiotic? Investors fund antibiotics — must-have fixes for problems people are already in pain over and already paying to solve. Most founders are pitching vitamins without realizing it.\n\nIn this free session, you'll learn:\n\nWhy the problem statement is the single most important element of your pitch — the \"pulse\" investors check first\nThe vitamin-vs-antibiotic test, and how to tell which one you're actually pitching\nHow to open your pitch so investors lean in during the first thirty seconds, instead of checking out\nA first look at our new AI Elevator Pitch Coach, built to give instant feedback on exactly this part of your pitch\nA quick overview of the Angel & VC Pitch Academy for founders who want to go deeper afterward\nEvery attendee gets one free session with the AI Elevator Pitch Coach to test and refine their own opportunity story.

Not a technology talk.\n\nWe’ll work through the three failures behind most stalled projects. First, no authoritative source of truth: your data isn’t just scattered across Shopify, your CDP, ad platforms, and CRM. None of them wins, so every AI output ends up arguing with a system of record somewhere.\n\nSecond, buying ahead of where you operate: AI capability arrives in levels, each one assuming the habits of the level below it. That unused subscription on your P&L is often a tool built for an organization three levels ahead of yours.\n\nThird, capacity without judgment: ROI is determined by the decision of what to build, not the quality of the build. A team can build the wrong thing very quickly.\n\nYou’ll leave with a nine question diagnostic to run on your own stalled projects, along with a framework for understanding what the answers mean. Some projects score clean on all nine and still stall. That’s its own diagnosis, and we’ll cover it.\n\n📅 45 minutes, including Q&A.

The Los Angeles edition's theme is \"AI in Institutional Finance: Multi-Agent Research Across Equity and Credit\". Los Angeles is one of the few cities where large equity and credit platforms sit side by side. PIMCO, TCW, Oaktree, Ares, DoubleLine, Capital Group, Dimensional and Beach Point are all here, and the same multi-agent research workflow has to hold up on both an equity desk and a credit desk.\n\nDoors open at 3:00 PM and the program runs 3:30 to 6:30 PM. The afternoon opens with remarks and a fireside with a portfolio manager at Granite Investment Partners on what the last cycle teaches us about this one. Three panels follow: the equity desk, with portfolio managers and a head of quantitative research from Causeway Capital, Redwood Investment Management and Granite Investment Partners; the credit desk, with the director of research for liquid credit at Ares Management and a managing director at a private credit manager; and the build side, with data and technology leaders from Causeway Capital, DoubleLine and Databricks on getting data and infrastructure ready for AI. There is also a live demo, and a networking reception runs until 7:30 PM. This Los Angeles edition, held during LA Tech Week, continues a global series with past events in Boston (with J.P. Morgan), New York (with OpenBB and Guidepoint), Seoul (with LSEG and LG AI Research) and London (hosted at Deutsche Bank).\n\nTo facilitate candid discussion, the summit will be held under the Chatham House Rule.

This one's about what happens when you meet the people who follow you.\n\nEveryone's calling offline the next big thing. Nobody's telling you how to actually start hosting, fill your plans, charge for them, or keep it going past the 3rd month.\n\nThe good ones don't just happen. Someone decided who's in the group, who gets introduced to who, and what happens in the first 10 minutes when nobody knows anyone. Curating it, pulling it together, making sure people actually connect. That's taste, and it's a skill. It's the part of the creator economy that can't happen on a screen, and it's the bit nobody teaches.\n\nIt's also a real business. 15 people paying $50 to eat dinner with you doesn't need a brand deal, an algorithm, or 100K followers. Most people who could do it have never tried.\n\nSo we're asking people who do.\n\nDuy Nguyen — co-founder of Koreatown Run Club, a handful of friends in 2016 that became one of the most recognised running communities in the world. He also founded Long Distance, a publication and creative consultancy rooted in running culture.

She's also a creator, making content about how to build a social club.\n\nRandy Tun — the LA creator behind Weekday Maxing, a series about making the most of your weekdays around a full-time job, now reaching over a million views a month. He built the audience first and then started taking it offline — park hangs, beach bonfires — while working 9-to-5 in tech sales.

Why?\n\nChris Sheng — Growth Advisor at Mucker Capital, CEO of LeadrPro, and a 3x founder who's worked with 300+ VC-backed startups — spent the past year deep in AI orchestration agents with Mucker portfolio companies, watching exactly where founders get stuck.\n\nIn this presentation, he'll cover how he's helped founders get untangled and apply AI to their most critical workflows.\n\nWe'll cover:\n- The two real bottlenecks stalling AI adoption: the learning curve to tangible ROI, and how fast you burn tokens without the right setup\n- How to reach the \"aha\" ROI moment faster by reframing tasks so agents actually execute\n- Why open-ended prompts torch your budget, and the process documentation that fixes it\n- A live build: bring a real use case from the audience and watch it get done in real time\n- The Slack-installed orchestration agent that manages the work: without you building infra or burning your own tokens\n\nSponsored by:\n- Manatt is a multidisciplinary professional services firm that helps founders and investors build, fund and scale innovative companies.

Teams of up to four must choose a future year and a central horror, ensuring technology drives the story. Participants must use FYI to build a working agent that performs a real function to help drive the story, alongside a cinematic vision, storyboard, and a vision of the systems that might save us, the harms they may cause, and the choices that determine whether humanity survives. Required deliverables include a cinematic storyboard, key art or poster, presentation graphics, a working FYI agent or workflow, a short trailer, a soundscape, an emergency broadcast, and a written explanation of the future, power structure, and harms.

The infrastructure bets are playing out. Agentic systems are moving from demos to production. And a new layer - what we call the Autonomous Economy - is starting to take shape in ways that matter for how companies get built and how capital gets deployed.\n\nMost of the coverage still hasn't caught up. So George is going to share his read on it directly.\n\nWhat we'll cover:\n→ The Autonomous Economy - a working definition. Not a buzzword. A framework for understanding what's actually shifting and why it matters in 2026.\n→ State of AI in Q3 2026: signal vs. noise. Where adoption is real, where infrastructure is consolidating, and where the application layer is opening up.\n→ Investment themes Untapped is watching. The 3-5 verticals and theses we're most excited about right now - with real context, not generic categories.\n→ What this means for founders and operators. Practical implications: what to build, what to avoid, and how to position for what's coming.\n→ Live Q&A. Bring your questions. George will answer them directly.\n\nWho should come:\nFounders building AI-native or AE-adjacent companies. Investors and allocators looking for a fund-level read on where the market is going. Operators and leaders navigating AI inside their organizations. Anyone who's tired of surface-level takes and wants real signal.\n\nAbout George:\nGeorge Bandarian is an AI investor, keynote speaker, and the Founder and General Partner of Untapped Ventures, an early-stage AI venture fund backing exceptional technical founders building the systems, infrastructure, and applications powering the Autonomous Economy (AE).\n\nThrough Untapped Ventures, he has backed 35+ AI-native companies, including xAI, You.com, Extropic, Liquid AI, and Harper, with a thesis spanning agentic systems, vertical AI, and next-generation compute.\n\nGeorge works closely with founders at the pre-seed and seed stages on company building, positioning, and go-to-market, and is also the host of the Agentic podcast (www.agenticai.vc).\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Every conversation Summer runs is built around one rule: you leave with something stealable — something you can actually do or review the second you're back at your desk.\n\nStart by dropping your name, company and LinkedIn in the chat. No pitching, just connecting. Then the panel. Then a breakout room where you ask your questions directly to the speakers. Because the panel is the setup, and the after-convo is where the real magic happens.\n\n🧱 The Wall\nFundraising is selling. Closing your first hospital or health-system contract is selling. Getting reimbursed from insurance companies is selling. Three different rooms, one skill nobody teaches you in med school, grad school, or engineering school.\n\n🤝 Wherever You Are\nHeld virtually, so getting to LA Tech Week doesn't mean a flight or an hour in traffic — join from your desk, your kitchen, or wherever you actually are.\n\n🙋 Stay After\nThe panel conversation will be recorded. The breakout room afterward is just for the room — unrecorded and open. Stay to the end for the prize package download.\n\n🎙 The Panel\nSummer Poletti — Host & Moderator, Chief Sales Strategist at Rise of Us. She designs panels for what happens after they end, not for the panel itself.\n\nKruti Baires — Founder, TheSprintFit. Gets health-tech founders capital- and diligence-ready before they're ever in the room asking for money.\n\nRobert Wegner — BW & Co Consulting. Specializes in non-dilutive funding for health-tech founders — the paths to capital that don't cost you equity.\n\nEric Hazzard, PhD — Researcher turned GTM operator, who's navigated the insurance and reimbursement maze from the inside.\n\n📅 Tuesday, October 13 · 11:30am–12:30pm PT\n\n====================================\n\nHosted by Rise of Us, home of the Revenue Remix podcast.\n\nDifferent city, different panel — catch a new set of voices at OC Tech Week, Oct 22, same thesis, different perspectives.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek.—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

So you tried ChatGPT or Claude or another tool. Maybe you picked a tool because someone recommended it, poked around for a bit, and then went back to doing things the way you always have. Not because AI didn't work, but because nobody told you what to actually do with it once you opened it.\n\nThis workshop is built for people who want to close that gap. Over two hours, we'll build the foundation that makes every AI tool work better, not just for today's task but for every one after it: your AI Operating System. Work will include building a source profile that tells AI who you are and how you work, prompts that get specific answers instead of generic ones, a map of exactly where AI belongs in your business and where it doesn't, and a governance stance that makes sense for your business, your people, and your data.\n\nYou don't need to be technical to attend. Bring your business and whatever you've been trying (and struggling) to use AI for, and leave with a system you can actually build on, not just another list of tools to try.\n\nAbout The Speaker: \n\nGarrett Kolanda is the founder of The Landing Pad, an AI implementation consulting firm helping individuals, teams, and organizations unlock the power of AI while keeping the human at the center. Trained as a chemical engineer, he brings a systems-thinking approach to AI adoption, treating it as something to be designed rather than guessed at.\n\nHe spent 14 years in federal government before founding The Landing Pad, and is a CliftonStrengths and Leadership Circle Profile certified coach. Garrett draws on that mix of technical training and people-centered coaching to help clients build practical systems they can actually use, not just theory they forget by Monday.\n\n\n---\n\nLAGLCC Skills Series is a new skills-based training program for LGBTQ+ business owners and leaders, with 2026 being our pilot year.

Both will be acting with increasing capacity on behalf of people who are not able to watch every step, and these systems do not follow instructions precisely.

Today none of these has a good answer.\n\nThis is a working session on this new set of questions. We start with why it is the same problem for software agents and for machines, why identity, security and guardrails each answer a neighboring question, and what a real answer might look like at the moment an agent or a robot does something that matters.\n\nYou will leave the session with a clearer understanding of why an authorization layer is necessary as a new foundational layer in the human-AI infrastructure stack, and what has to be in place before you would let an agent near money, records or a patient, or a robot near a customer.\n\nThis event is perfect for founders and CTOs putting AI agents in front of customers in finance, healthcare, legal or insurance, the people inside enterprises whose job is getting agents into production this year, robotics teams moving from demo to deployment, and the investors and infrastructure builders following the space.\n\nVirtual on Zoom, 30 Minutes, Hosted by Marina Piller, founder of OTISLabs.ai.

They'll walk you through their actual builds: prompts, context files, which connectors they're using, etc. They'll even provide you with the skills and MD files to take with you.\n\nOperators:\n- Tony Yang - Head of Growth & Platform at Mucker\n- Jonathan Martinez - Founder of GrowthPair\n- Chris Sheng - CEO of LeadrPro\n- Petros Hong - Community Developer Manager at Apify\n\nThen, we'll spend about 2 hours together for you to build these yourself with assistance from the team. Either implement the use-cases shared or work on your own. You'll need your own laptop and your own Claude account or other AI tools.\n\nFinally, we'll open it up for any brave attendees of the workshop to show off what they've built to the rest of the attendees so that we can all learn together.\n\nAgenda:\n2pm-3pm: See real examples from startup GTM operators.\n3pm-5pm: Hands-on workshop.

It's the quiet killer of modern marketing, and most companies won't notice until the bad decisions it produced are already baked into their strategy.\n\nIn this keynote, Bryan Karas, Founder & CEO of VibeMa & GrowTal, breaks down what happens when AI hallucination and sycophancy meet marketing decision-making, and why the fix isn't a smarter model, it's a real foundation. Drawing on lessons from 2 decades of marketing experience and real world lessons from deploying AI into Playbook Media, Bryan will breakdown the risks all businesses are facing with AI in marketing and what they can do to mitigate them.\n\nFollowing the Keynote, Yunus Tezcan, CTO of VibeMA will demo VibeMA.

They happen at a dinner, on a lot, in a group chat where someone says \"you should talk to my friend who's hiring.\" That's not a coincidence — hiring here, especially at startups and entertainment-adjacent companies, runs on real conversations, not resumes sitting in a queue.\n\nSo we built the room for people who don't already have that group chat.\n\n8 founders — building in creator economy, entertainment-tech, and consumer — get 3 minutes each on stage to pitch you directly. You hear who they are, what they're building, and what they're actually looking for, before you ever hand over a resume. No booth line, no recruiter reading off a script, no black hole.\n\nWorth saying why now: entry-level postings are down 35% since 2023, and nearly half of HR professionals admit to posting jobs they never intend to fill. The old format wasn't built for this job market, so we're not using it.\n\nThis is the last stop on our Fall 2026 tour after New York and San Francisco — built for the LA crowd and anyone trying to break into the industries this city actually runs on. Come hear founders talk honestly about how their first hires happened, and leave with real conversations instead of a stack of business cards.\n\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Emotion is sensory and worth listening to.\n\nThrough live conversation, product exploration, and hands-on curation, guests will explore how emotional intention and sensory design can shape new experiences beyond burnout, and how their own knowledge, taste, research, places, rituals, and ideas can become RelaXi Capsules others can practice, share, and remember.\n\nWhat to Expect\n\n🥂 A Sensory Welcome\nArrive through taste, sound, and atmosphere before the conversation begins.\n\n🧠 Beyond Burnout Panel\nA conversation on emotion, sensory design, AI, and the future of how we relax.\n\n🧭 The RelaXi Founder’s Thesis\nWhy emotion is sensory, and why the next generation of wellbeing needs direction, not another score.\n\n📱 The RelaXi Product Preview\nExplore emotional intentions, sensory coordinates, and Capsules across digital, physical, and social experiences.\n\n✨ Curator Lab: Design a Capsule\nSee how your taste, knowledge, research, place, ritual, or idea can become a repeatable sensory experience others can practice and remember.\n\n🤝 Conversation and Connection\nMeet founders, investors, creators, researchers, designers, and cultural tastemakers shaping new ways to relax.\n\nWho This Is For\n\n🎨 Creators, artists, photographers, filmmakers, and designers\n🏛️ Architects, interior designers, hospitality builders, object lovers, and cultural curators\n📚 Book, film, music, travel, food, fashion, and city tastemakers\n🧠 Researchers, neuroscientists, founders, investors, and experience builders\n\nYou do not need to work in traditional wellness.

Players Wanted is a three-bar crawl through the NoHo Arts District where every stop runs a different social game designed to break the awkwardness, so you meet people by playing with them instead of pitching at them. We kick off at 4:15 at Granville on Magnolia, points carry across the night, and the top scorers win prizes. We wrap at Brews Brothers right as Tech is a Joke kicks off: live stand-up from engineers, founders and data scientists roasting the industry they work in.\n\nTHE ROUTE (all a few minutes' walk apart)\n\n4:15 to 5:15pm: GRANVILLE, 11136 Magnolia Blvd\nA big, bi-level industrial-modern spot right at Magnolia and Lankershim, with high ceilings, roomy booths, a community table and a calmer upstairs lounge. Tuesday is all-day happy hour here (the only Granville where that's true), so settle in with craft cocktails and shareable plates while we warm up.\n\n5:15 to 6:15pm: WHERE THE CREATURES SLEEP AT SHADOW GROVE, 5249 Lankershim Blvd\nLike drinking inside a dark storybook. This gothic-fantasy brewpub from Shadow Grove Brewing is wrapped in twisting vines and moody light, and every small-batch beer is a character in an ongoing story (try the hazy \"That Which Hides in the Haze\"). Happy hour runs until 6: $2 off drafts, wine and flights, $2 crispy chickpeas, and a $10 burger and fries.\n\n6:15 to 7:15pm: THE CANTIKI, 11100 Magnolia Blvd\nA transportive tiki hideaway with fiery, sassy cocktails. Happy hour lasts until 6:30, so come early for $9 Mai Tais, Zombielands, Scorpions and Tiger Punch, $10 classics, $7 tall boys, and select cocktails as a shareable bucket for $5 more.\n\n7:15pm: BREWS BROTHERS, 5140 Lankershim Blvd\nA craft brewpub from LA beer lifers Billie and Joey, pouring Belgian-inspired house beers. Tech is a Joke starts at 7:30.\n\nJoin at any stop. Tell us in your RSVP where you'll likely jump in so we have a game waiting for you. Come solo or bring friends.\n\nStaying for the comedy?

The ugly truth is that building a tech company here still means fighting for signal in a market split across entertainment, media, consumer, defense, AI, and venture. Founders are not just asking “Can this scale?” They are asking “Can this survive LA’s attention economy long enough to matter?”\n\nThis Ugly Talk gets into the real mechanics of building and funding in LA. The missed rounds. The weird customer pivots. The investor conversations that go sideways. The moments when a founder realizes the market is not impressed by the story unless the numbers can back it up.\n\n## **🎯 Why You Should Attend**\n\n- Hear the real LA founder playbook beyond hype, press, and demo day polish.\n- Learn what actually gets funded in this market, and what just sounds fundable.\n- Understand how founders build credibility before the market catches up.\n- Get practical lessons on customer traction, investor trust, early hires, and surviving the messy middle.\n- Meet builders, operators, and funders who care about the scar tissue, not just the highlight reel.\n\n## **🙋 Who's Getting In This Room**\n\n- Tech founders building in LA or expanding into the LA market.\n- Early-stage founders preparing to raise or currently raising.\n- Angel investors, VCs, scout funds, and operators backing emerging companies.\n- Product, growth, and engineering leaders who want to understand the LA ecosystem.\n- Anyone tired of founder theater and ready for the honest version of how companies get built.\n\n## **🎤 Who's Taking the Stage**\n\nTBD. Ideal lineup:\n\n- A venture-backed LA founder who has raised through a tough market.\n- An investor who can speak honestly about what gets funded and what gets passed on.\n- A builder/operator who has scaled product, growth, or revenue in a noisy category.\n\n## **💬 What's On the Table**\n\n- What makes LA a real tech market now, not just a side quest from SF.\n- The difference between a good story and a fundable company.\n- How founders get investor attention without becoming LinkedIn performance artists.\n- What breaks first when capital gets tight.\n- The ugly funding lessons founders usually only admit after the round closes.\n- How to build real momentum when the ecosystem is fragmented.\n\n## **🤝 Who's Hosting It**\n\nUgly Talk brings founders, operators, and builders into a room for honest conversations about the moments that almost broke the business, and what those moments taught them.\n\n## **🤝 Who's Backing This**\n\nSponsor and partner opportunities available. Best fit: venture platforms, startup banks, legal/accounting firms, AI tools, dev tools, talent platforms, founder communities, and LA ecosystem partners.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek, a week of events hosted by the top founders, funds, and companies to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Expect candid conversations, practical frameworks, and real-world examples from operators who have learned how to showcase the value they create behind the scenes.\n\nJoin goodr and Ask a Chief of Staff during LA Tech Week as we discuss how to make the invisible visible—and why communicating your impact is a critical leadership skill for every Chief of Staff.\n\nOur panel will feature...\n\n🌟 Moderator:\nClara Ma — Founder & CEO, Ask a Chief of Staff\n\n🌟 Panelists:\n✨ Lindiwe Stenberg — Business Operations Lead & Chief of Staff to the CMO @ Venmo\nLindiwe Stenberg is Chief of Staff to the CMO at Venmo — the person who keeps marketing running in rhythm with the business, from finance and three-year planning to the board decks and other fun exec comms. She’s also leading the org’s AI transformation, including building Venmo’s first-ever AI creative generation tool. With over a decade in marketing and operations, an MS in Healthcare Marketing, and a PMP, she’s made a career of being the person who makes ambitious ideas actually happen. She’s based in the LA area, where she volunteers with Pasadena Humane.\n\n✨ Shirin Bidel-Niyat — Chief of Staff @ goodr\nShirin Bidel-Niyat is the Chief of Staff at goodr, where she partners with the CEO to drive strategic execution, executive and organizational alignment, and enterprise-wide initiatives that accelerate the company's growth. She leads the Office of the CEO, overseeing cross-functional priorities, executive operations, and long-range planning to transform ambitious ideas into measurable business outcomes. Prior to joining goodr, Bidel-Niyat served as a presidential appointee and Chief of Staff at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), where she supported the Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Director of the USPTO on complex operational and strategic initiatives at the nation's largest intellectual property agency. Drawing on experience in both the public and private sectors, she brings a unique perspective on leadership, organizational effectiveness, and the evolving role of the Chief of Staff in helping organizations maximize their impact.\n\n✨ Kasey Katz — Chief of Staff to the CEO @ Hiyo\nKasey Katz is Chief of Staff to the CEO and Board at Hiyo, where she helps scale a rapidly growing brand in the non alcoholic beverage space.

She later earned her MBA from Northwestern Kellogg before joining Hiyo.

Before that he ran program and platform at Cedars-Sinai Accelerator+, where community building was the work. He got his start in entertainment as a talent agent trainee at UTA in film and TV, working closely with creators to build brands and businesses, then moved into his first operator seat as right hand to the founders of RoofTop Management in live entertainment. He is an AI-native operator who builds his own tools, less interested in efficiency for its own sake than in what it frees people up to do: better work, better rooms, more human touch points. A UCLA grad based between LA and SF with several years across the European startup ecosystem, he continues to build at the intersection of operations and technology, where better systems make room for more of the human experience.\n\nCome for the insights and connect with fellow Chiefs of Staff, operators, and leaders building high-impact organizations together!\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek, a week of events hosted by the top founders, funds, and companies to bring together the tech ecosystem.

To protect that atmosphere, we strictly enforce the following rules around solicitation.\n\n​Investment Solicitation. Active fundraising and investment solicitation is limited exclusively to the startups that have been formally selected to present and only within the context of their on-stage presentation and designated interactions. We kindly ask that all other attendees (including investors, founders, and guests affiliated with other companies or projects) refrain from pitching, fundraising, or soliciting capital for outside opportunities during the event. You are warmly encouraged to build natural relationships, exchange contact information, and schedule follow-up conversations after the event; we believe the strongest outcomes come from authentic connections—not in-room solicitation.\n\n​Business Solicitation. We maintain a high standard around commercial outreach to ensure a comfortable experience for all guests. Sponsors and service providers are carefully curated and capped; only officially registered sponsors and officially registered service providers may actively solicit business during the event. All other attendees are welcome to network and discuss what they do organically, but we ask that overt sales outreach, client prospecting, and promotional solicitation be reserved for follow-up conversations after the event.\n\n​House Rules & Enforcement. This is a business semi-formal setting, and we expect conduct consistent with an elevated investments gathering. Failure to comply with these standards of decorum may result in being asked to leave and/or not being invited to future Seed2Table events.\n\n​\n\n​Seed2Table\nSeed2Table, LLC produces elevated investor experiences—including Seed2Table and Inner Circle—that merge world-class hospitality with curated capital conversations. Seed2Table designs and operates multi-day retreats, private dinners, and bespoke gatherings where investors, fund managers, and founders build clarity, conviction, and long-term relationships.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek, a week of events hosted by the top founders, funds, and companies to bring together the tech ecosystem.

No company names. No “I’m the founder of…” No résumé talk.\n\nWhen you arrive, you’ll find your name waiting at a table we’ve curated for you. Grab some clay, pick a conversation card, and meet the humans sitting across from you.\n\nLater, we’ll reveal what everyone actually does.\n\nWe’ll also explore a few questions around something Product.ai thinks about a lot: trust. What makes you trust another person? What makes you trust AI? And what happens when you know someone before knowing their credentials?\n\nHow it works\n\nRSVP → fill out our short Claydate questionnaire → we curate the tables → find your name when you arrive → make something → meet someone.\n\nIf you're attending, please complete the questionnaire after RSVPing. Your answers help us create the room.\n\nCome curious.

What keeps users coming back? How do you scale without sacrificing the experience? And what makes your product difficult to replicate? \n\nExpect a practical discussion on product-market fit, go-to-market, retention, unit economics, scaling, and defensibility—with lessons from leaders who have taken products well beyond the demo stage.\n\nThe panel will feature Sixth Wall by Hasbro, LemonSlice, Live Play Mobile, and Kelly Nyland.  \n\nCome for the conversation, stay to connect with fellow founders, builders, product leaders, and investors shaping the next generation of Voice AI and consumer experiences.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Then everyone shares one thing that worked this year and one that didn't, and we eat. Argentinian food, good malbec, a private patio. The conversation stays off the record, and I'll send a written recap afterwards with no names attached.\n\nWHO SHOULD COME\nFounders and heads of ecommerce, growth and marketing at consumer brands who own the page or the number. If you've switched on an AI tool this year and still aren't sure it's earning its keep, you'll fit right in.\n\nEvery RSVP is reviewed. Confirmed guests get the details the week before.\n\nABOUT ME\nI'm Adrienne. I'm a data science and analytics leader who has built models behind growth, fraud and acquisition at Meta, NASA Ames, TextNow and Palo Alto Networks. What keeps me up at night now is how people, and increasingly AI agents, decide what (and when) to buy.

Whether you're a creator looking for your next revenue stream or an operator trying to figure out how to work with creators well, come!!\n\nPanel:\n\n⭐ Rebecca Rechtszaid \nFounder of Rechtszaid Law, a law firm advising creators, brands and digital-first businesses.

AND THERE'LL BE [FOOD/DRINKS — TBD] 🍕, plus a round of bingo to close out the night and get everyone actually talking to each other 🎉\n\nYou'll walk away knowing:\n\n- Which revenue streams are actually durable vs. just a spike (brand deals vs. affiliate vs. owning your own product vs. live/social commerce)\n- Whether you really need a certain follower count before you can start charging, and how to price different kinds of work\n- What breaks first when your audience outgrows your DMs, comments, and customer service, and what to actually do about it\n- How to invoice clients, keep your books straight, and do your banking before you're running a business out of five different apps\n\nHosted by Wati\n\nWati is the conversational growth platform over 16,000 businesses use to turn a flooded DM inbox across Instagram, WhatsApp, RCS, and soon TikTok into an actual sales and support channel. If you've ever watched your comments explode after a post goes viral and had no plan for the \"price??\" tsunami that followed, Wati catches it, automates the reply, and gets the customer to checkout without you touching your phone at 11pm.\n\nRSVP to grab a spot.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Not here. Join us Wednesday, Oct 14, anytime from 6am to 9am (welcome to stay longer), for a heavy session to recharge in the middle of Tech Week. (We lift every morning, Oct 12–18: LA.dontfrango.com)\n\nLA Tech Week is packed with wellness events. Morning runs, yoga sessions, cold plunges, meditation, you name it. But where are the events for lifters?\n\nFor those who would rather start their morning under a barbell, welcome to the DON'T BE A FRANGO LIFTING CLUB: TECH WEEK EDITION.\n\nWhat the hell is a Frango?\nIn Brazil, frango means chicken. In gym slang, it's someone who's just going through the motions. Half reps. Phone between sets (sometimes during). The weight they know they can handle. They show up. They just aren't doing the work that matters.\n\nThe gym is one of the few honest rooms left. No one can do the work for you. Every rep, every excuse, every decision is yours. And so are the results you get. We believe that how you show up in the gym translates into how you show up at home, at work, and in life.\n\nAll of us can act a little frango sometimes. We all could use a push from each other to keep getting stronger and building the lives and companies we want. And the gym is the perfect setting for that. That's why we created this lifting club. To surround ourselves with people who push us to get stronger, think bigger, work smarter, and put our energy into what actually matters.\n\nThis isn't a pep talk session. No instructor. No guru. No kumbaya. Just iron, sweat, and people who won't let you be a frango.\n\nWe're taking the DON'T BE A FRANGO LIFTING CLUB on a tour of gyms across Los Angeles during Tech Week, bringing together founders, builders, and investors who get that how you train is how you build.\n\nBring your own program, train with a buddy, or show up solo and meet someone new. We'll help everyone connect. Just come prepared to work hard and have fun!\n\nThe schedule and access details are coming soon. RSVP to stay in the loop and join us for one workout or the entire week. Heads up: depending on the gym, some sessions may require a day pass or access fee. We'll share all costs upfront once each location is confirmed.\n\nWHAT TO EXPECT\n🏋️ A real strength session. Physical, mental, and for some of us, spiritual.\n\n🤝 Train alongside founders, builders, and investors who keep their inner frango in check, in the gym and beyond.\n\n💪 Make new friends and maybe find the training buddy who keeps you not-frango long after Tech Week ends.\n\n🐔 A free Don't Be a Frango shirt (while supplies last).\n\nStill not sure if this is for you? Show up. Put in the work. Don't be a frango!\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Frontier AI models can now reason across entire codebases, trace a vulnerability to root cause, and propose a fix — in minutes. The same capabilities are available to adversaries. The question isn't whether AI will reshape cybersecurity. It's whether defenders or attackers get there first.\n\nJoin us for a 90-minute deep dive into the emerging landscape of AI-powered security agents — from purpose-built cyber defense models to autonomous red/blue teaming — and what it means for how you architect, ship, and protect software.\n\n\n\nWhat We'll Cover\n\n🔴 Offense-Grade AI for Defenders — How purpose-trained cybersecurity models (like AWS's newly available Daybreak Red & Blue on Amazon Bedrock) give authorized security teams frontier capabilities: vulnerability research, exploit reproduction, and mitigation development — with the refusal thresholds dialed for real defensive work\n\n🔵 Autonomous Blue Team Agents — Detection engineering, incident response, and patch validation at machine speed. How AI agents trace reachability, confirm exploitability, and ship fixes within the disclosure window\n\n🧠 The Broader Landscape — Where Mythos, Daybreak, and next-gen security agents fit in the stack. What's production-ready vs. emerging, and how to evaluate\n\n🔒 Zero-Trust AI Infrastructure — Running sensitive security workloads (proprietary source code, unpatched vuln details, live telemetry) through models you control: zero-operator access, VPC isolation, and no training on your data\n\n⚡ From Finding to Fix — The end-to-end pipeline: discovery → confirmation → root cause → tested patch → deployment.

In this candid panel, Hardware Velocity brings together experienced hardware founders to share the lessons they learned building companies, including what they got wrong, what they would do differently, and how their approach has changed with experience.\n\nThe discussion will explore three realities of building hardware: understanding the true time and cost required to bring a product to market, building toward a sustainable and profitable business, and staying resilient when failures have real financial and operational consequences.\n\nWho should attend\n\nHardware founders and leaders building physical products who want to learn from people who have already worked through the difficult decisions, failures, and tradeoffs that come with building hardware companies.\n\nWhat to expect\n\n- Stories about costly mistakes, failures, and lessons learned\n- How experienced founders think about time, cost, and profitability differently\n- Practical lessons you can apply to your own hardware company\n- Interactive discussion with time for Q&A\n\nPanelists\n\n- Kristie D'Ambrosio-Correll - CEO and Co-founder, Dacora Motors; former CTO, Mirror\n- David Jaramillo - Deep-tech founder and entrepreneur; Co-founder, Verne\n- Mike Pica - Founder, Hardware Velocity (Moderator)\n\nWhy this conversation is different\n\nThis isn't a panel about abstract hardware best practices. The conversation will center on specific decisions, mistakes, and failures from people who have built hardware companies, and what those experiences taught them about building differently the next time around.\n\nAbout Hardware Velocity\n\nHardware Velocity helps hardware companies navigate product development from strategy through execution. We work alongside leadership teams to define the right path forward, assemble the engineering and manufacturing capabilities needed, and provide the technical leadership and program oversight to bring products to market.\n\n---\n\nMake sure to also check out our in person SF Tech Week Event!\n\nhttps://partiful.com/e/zQFy1PzMn4A1pnZBQpFE\n\n---\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

AI agents don't just read your clients' sites anymore. They compare pricing, fill out forms, book demos, and check out. Some people call this B2A, business-to-agent.

Beyond platform ROAS: Bring business context into decisions about where to invest and what to optimize.\n2. A connected view of performance: Use AI to investigate changes across channels and identify where attention is needed.\n3. From insight to action: Understand how agents can monitor performance, recommend next steps, and execute approved actions.\n4. Where to start: Identify practical workflows to introduce into your existing team or agency operations.\n\nWho should attend\n\nConsumer brand founders, CMOs, growth leaders, ecommerce and paid media teams, and agencies helping brands grow. Especially relevant for beauty, fashion, wellness, food and beverage, home, and lifestyle businesses.\n\nAnna Stepura is the Co-founder and CEO of Adlyse, an agentic operating system for performance marketing.

Designers and VFX artists study real-world physics, then bend it to their imagination. World models extend that craft. Video models can generate a shot; world models aim to generate the whole world it lives in: a persistent, physics-aware environment a director can move through, re-light, and come back to tomorrow and find unchanged. For previs, virtual production, and interactive formats, that means more ideas get tested before anyone commits a crew or a stage day to them.\n\nGenerating a world is half the story. The other half is understanding one. As AI moves from producing frames to interpreting them, visual reasoning matters just as much: answering open-ended questions about what footage implies, including physical constraints, cause and effect, and multi-step inference. Identifying what is in the footage and where is largely solved. Understanding what it means, and what follows from it, is the open problem, and it's what Elorian's team is focused on.\n\nFounders from Reactor and Elorian sit down to talk through what's possible, share a demo, and discuss how they collaborate with creatives today. \n\n🕐 SCHEDULE\n\nAgenda\n1:00 PM — Welcome and framing from AWS\n1:10 PM — Fireside chat with live demos woven in: Reactor on building and running worlds in real time, Elorian AI on visual understanding.\n1:45 PM — Networking with refreshments\n━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━\n\n🎤 SPEAKERS\n\n⚡ Reactor — reactor.inc\nBryce Schmidtchen is co-founder and CTO of Reactor, which builds the platform for real-time AI inference — developer tools and APIs for real-time generative video, world models, and more. \n\nBefore Reactor, he was a technical lead on Apple Vision Pro, working at the intersection of real-time graphics and spatial computing. Reactor emerged from stealth in 2026 with $59M led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, alongside WndrCo, Amplify Partners, Sky9 Capital, and FPV Ventures. \n\n⚡ Elorian — elorian.ai\nAndrew Dai, Co-Founder Elorian AI \n\nExperienced principal Researcher/Software Engineer manager with a demonstrated history of working in deep learning, in particular natural language understanding, medical records and large language models.

The people building consumer products meet the people who know how to make audiences care.\n\nHere’s how the night flows:\n\n1) Creator panel. A practical look at the hooks and formats shaping feeds right now, how organic content becomes a repeatable growth channel, when to turn an organic winner into a paid campaign, and where human taste still matters as AI speeds up production. Line-up coming soon.\n\n2) Open networking + creative corner. After the panel, the conversation continues over drinks. In a dedicated space, you can put those ideas into practice and brainstorm directly with people who build audiences for a living. Bring an ad, hook, campaign concept, product story, or even a half-formed idea.

Deepak Shrivastava (CEO, Sunrise AI) and Chetan Bagga (Managing Partner, Archetype Growth) walk through one live operating-partner engagement on an Archetype portco — the initial swing at an AI-native playbook: the forward-deployed model that quietly did a whole ops team's work, where they face-planted, and how they'd underwrite AI in the next deal. Real numbers, real misses, off the record. Cocktails. Roster capped @ dozen seats for PE, operating partners, and LPs — strictly invite-only, by approval.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.\n\n--\nAbout Archetype\n\nChetan Bagga founded Archetype in 2013 to invest in the strongest companies in the health insurance and employee benefits sector. From the beginning, Chetan created a sourcing paradigm by which Archetype consults with larger enterprises to get access to robust, yet under-invested vendor networks. After six years of independently investing in the space and accelerating Archetype's platform, Archetype invited limited partners into its first fund.\n\nSince then, the firm has evolved into a comprehensive growth equity and consulting ecosystem. Today, this integrated model is powered by the Archetype Fund, Archetype Solutions, and the RAD Collective—a unique synergy designed to identify, fund, and scale the next generation of healthcare innovation.\n\n--\nAbout Sunrise AI\n\nSunrise AI forward-deploys AI systems directly into the operating core of mid-to-large cap organizations, rather than selling software from the outside in. From the start, Sunrise built around an \"AI operating layer\" model -- embedding alongside a company's core teams, shipping working systems against real workflows, and proving value in production before scaling.\n\nBacked by AI Fund (Dr. Andrew Ng), the model pairs a governed, security-first platform with an operating-partner approach: identify the high-leverage workflows, deploy AI that does the work, and re-underwrite how teams run. \n\nSunrise now brings that same AI-native playbook to private equity operating partners and their portfolio companies.", "official": "https://www.tech-week.com/calendar/la/events/ai-native-value-creation-a-pe-operating-partner-fireside-37b9ada3-be3d-4bd6-a0db-f2f018126e37?src=mcp", "partiful": "https://partiful.com/e/wJcfMjnAqQAoL8nXhmFg", "ai": { "id": "37b9ada3-be3d-4bd6-a0db-f2f018126e37", "score": 0.91, "band": "All", "color": "#dc2626", "reason": "AI is the central subject named by the event title.", "evidence": "AI-Native Value Creation: A PE Operating-Partner Fireside", "confidence": "high", "method": "title-and-main-description heuristic; degree of AI-relatedness, not probability or attendance share" }, "publicAddress": [], "publicNeighborhood": "Ocean Park", "positionKind": "Neighbourhood centre (approx.)", "geocode": null, "neighborhoodGeocode": { "coords": [ -118.4836879, 34.0022327 ], "name": "Ocean Park", "source": "https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/150935125", "type": "OpenStreetMap named neighbourhood representative point", "accuracy": "Area only; not venue location" }, "startsAt": "2026-10-14T23:30:00.000Z", "endsAt": null, "descriptionDate": "2026-10-07", "applicationQuestions": [ { "id": "techweek_first_name", "text": "First name", "type": "short_answer", "required": true }, { "id": "techweek_last_name", "text": "Last name", "type": "short_answer", "required": true }, { "id": "techweek_email", "text": "What is your email?

If you've ever watched your DMs explode after a food blogger tags your restaurant and had no plan for the \"do you have a table for 4 tonight?\" tsunami that followed, Wati catches it, automates the reply, and gets the guest booked without anyone at the front desk touching a phone at 11pm.\n\nRSVP to grab a spot!\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

No investor relations. No business cards. No networking. Just people. \n\nUnder the LA sky, you'll be introduced to **five strangers, each carefully chosen because there's something interesting, unexpected, or meaningful that you might discover in each other. And there's a little ice cream involved. 🍦 **Five people. Five encounters. Five flavors.** Each time you meet someone new, you'll share an ice cream, sit down, and spend a little time getting to know each other. Where they're from. What they're passionate about. The strangest thing they've ever done. What they're excited about. What they believe. What they want from life. You might discover a new friend. A future travel partner. Someone who shares your weird obsession. Someone who sees the world completely differently from you. Or simply someone whose story you'll remember. Because the world is full of extraordinary people we never meet—not because they aren't out there, but because our paths never cross. **We're changing that for one night.\nCome alone. Come with friends.

The ugly truth is that creators are being told to “embrace the future” while also watching their likeness, voice, workflows, audience trust, and income models get scrambled in real time.\n\nThis conversation is not about shiny AI demos. It is about what creators, founders, studios, and platforms are actually wrestling with: ownership, leverage, authenticity, speed, burnout, rights, and whether the next wave of content will make creators more powerful or more disposable.\n\n## **🎯 Why You Should Attend**\n\n- Understand how AI is actually reshaping creator workflows and entertainment businesses.\n- Hear the real concerns creators have around trust, ownership, and audience relationships.\n- Learn where AI helps creators scale, and where it quietly cheapens the work.\n- Meet founders, creators, entertainment operators, and investors building at the edge of this shift.\n- Get past the “AI will change everything” line and into what is already breaking.\n\n## **🙋 Who's Getting In This Room**\n\n- Content creators, creator economy founders, entertainment operators, and media builders.\n- AI founders building tools for video, audio, writing, distribution, licensing, fan engagement, or monetization.\n- Talent managers, studio operators, brand marketers, and platform people.\n- Investors tracking AI x entertainment and creator infrastructure.\n- Creators who want leverage without selling out their voice.\n\n## **🎤 Who's Taking the Stage**\n\nTBD. Ideal lineup:\n\n- A creator using AI in the workflow but staying honest about the tradeoffs.\n- An AI founder building for entertainment or creator use cases.\n- An entertainment operator, manager, or rights expert who can speak to ownership and trust.\n- Optional moderator with both tech and media fluency.\n\n## **💬 What's On the Table**\n\n- What creators should automate, and what they should protect.\n- The new trust problem: audiences can smell cheap content.\n- Voice, likeness, rights, and the messy business model questions.\n- How AI changes production speed, creative taste, and team size.\n- Why “more content” is not the same as better leverage.\n- The creator economy’s next ugly middle: monetization, platform dependence, and burnout.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

This one rewards honesty.\n\nThe ugly truth is that builders are carrying plenty they do not say out loud: botched launches, weird cofounder tension, customers who ghosted, demos that broke, features nobody used, investor meetings that felt like improv, and the quiet doubt that shows up after everyone else logs off.\n\nThis is an open mic and mixer for tech founders and builders who want the real room. Short stories, sharp lessons, and zero startup theater.\n\n## **🎯 Why You Should Attend**\n\n- Share or hear the raw story behind a build, launch, pivot, or failure.\n- Meet other founders and builders through honesty, not job titles.\n- Get fast signal on what people are actually struggling with.\n- Leave with better connections because the room skipped the fake part.\n- Perfect for LA Tech Week attendees who want something more useful than another surface-level mixer.\n\n## **🙋 Who's Getting In This Room**\n\n- Tech founders, technical builders, product people, engineers, designers, and operators.\n- First-time founders figuring it out in public.\n- Repeat founders with scars and better jokes.\n- Builders looking for collaborators, customers, community, or sanity.\n- Investors and ecosystem folks who know how to listen before pitching.\n\n## **🎤 Who's Taking the Stage**\n\nOpen mic format. Recommended structure:\n\n- 6 to 8 founder/builder stories.\n- 5 to 7 minutes each.\n- Each speaker shares one ugly moment, what broke, what they learned, and what changed after.\n- Optional closer: a rapid-fire “hard lesson I wish I knew sooner” round.\n\n## **💬 What's On the Table**\n\n- The launch that flopped.\n- The feature that nobody wanted.\n- The cofounder conversation people avoid until too late.\n- The customer discovery lesson that hurt.\n- The investor meeting that changed the strategy.\n- The weird emotional tax of building while pretending everything is fine.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek, a week of events hosted by the top founders, funds, and companies to bring together the tech ecosystem.

That is what this half-day, in-person masterclass is for.\n\nWho it is for\nCROs, Chief Sales Officers, CMOs, Chief Customer Officers, COOs responsible for revenue, and founders, at B2B companies of any size selling into large organizations where a buying committee has to say yes. Teams moving upmarket that have not won the first one yet are welcome.\n\nThe three hours\nThe Value Edge, with Bruce Scheer, author of the bestseller Inspire Your Buyers: the positioning and go-to-market narrative your team sells from, so the buying group says yes and your champion can make the case without you in the room.\n\nThe Approval Edge, with Dean Edwards, former Fortune 500 Chief Procurement Officer: getting through complex enterprise approvals, Procurement, Legal, Security, Finance and AI governance, without stalling and without giving the margin away.\n\nThe Expansion Edge, with Sandy Yu, who led global customer success at Oracle, Cisco and PwC: retention and expansion after signature, and the leaks that quietly drain it.\n\nWhat you leave with\nA clear read on which motion is costing you the most. A one-page positioning and narrative spine canvas for your team, built to hold up as a CFO-ready business case. An approval-readiness framework your team can run on every enterprise deal. A map of the three leaks that drain expansion after signature, scored against your own accounts. All participants receive a free Kindle copy of my bestselling book, Inspire Your Buyers, via a redemption link. And you hear from peers about their toughest challenges selling into the enterprise.\n\nCome with the motion that is costing you the most. You can find it before you arrive: nine questions, about three minutes, at getenterpriseedge.com.\n\nLogistics\nCome at 9:00 for coffee and networking. We start promptly at 9:30 and finish at 12:30. Stay afterwards for lunch.\n\nLimited to twenty-five participants. Seats are approved one at a time to keep the conversation relevant and at the right level, and you will hear back within a day.

It is widening the gap between agencies that sell more hours and agencies that turn their expertise into repeatable systems.\n\nJoin this free, interactive, 60-minute Zoom workshop for founders and senior leaders at boutique digital, performance marketing, growth, SEO/CRO, and web agencies.\n\nWe’ll break down how a small agency can use AI to increase client capacity, improve delivery margins, and produce stronger work without sacrificing strategy, judgment, or brand quality.\n\nYou’ll learn how to:\n\n• Turn a client website and intake process into a structured brand and growth brief\n• Diagnose positioning, conversion, acquisition, and findability problems faster\n• Move from an approved brief to client-ready messaging, landing pages, campaign concepts, and content drafts\n• Build human review and quality-control loops that prevent generic AI output\n• Create repeatable client workspaces, reporting systems, and next-step recommendations\n• Decide what to automate, what to standardize, and what should remain deeply human\n\nBring your agency website, a client URL you have permission to discuss, and one delivery bottleneck. We’ll redesign selected workflows live.\n\nThis is not a prompt-writing class, a tool parade, or a prediction about agencies disappearing. You’ll leave with an Agency AI Workflow Scorecard, a practical operating model, and a 30-day plan for testing one high-leverage workflow inside your agency.\n\nBest for agency owners, managing directors, and leaders responsible for strategy, performance marketing, growth, client delivery, or operations at independent agencies.\n\nHosted by Samir Patel, a growth and marketing operator with 20+ years of experience.

It's the kind of candid conversation founders almost never get to sit in on.

See “Tickets & Updates” below for more.\n_______\n\nYC CEO Garry Tan urged: “Your startup’s trajectory is tightly linked to your own growth as a founder. You can have the best tech and the smartest team, but if you’re unconsciously holding yourself back it’s like driving with the parking brake on.” Similarly, Nike’s mantra resonates nearly 40 years later because people around the world know how often we... just don’t do it. \n\nWhy isn’t knowing what needs to be done enough to do it?\n\nEach nervous system is a unique experiment of nature, so one-size-fits-all advice is inherently limited. Instead, Joe will first use structured exercises to help attendees define their “IT”—what matters most—because optimizing performance starts with tuning our internal navigation system:\n\n•\tIndividual core values \n•\tHow values differ from goals \n•\tWhat research and practice tell us about why values matter\n•\tHow to apply the same framework to your startup’s core values\n\nNext comes “DOING IT”. Like sports, founder performance is mediated by the nervous system. Yet founders rarely optimize that system with the same deliberateness elite athletes bring to theirs. Using a newly published neurodynamic model of executive functioning (Cozolino et al., 2025), Joe will help organize biological, psychological, relational, and contextual factors that enhance or inhibit our abilities to turn intentions into action. \n\nAttendees will begin developing individualized approaches to enhance and better sustain values-based performance, supported by:\n\n•\tReal illustrative examples of transformation\n•\tFundamentals that need to be treated like daily hygiene\n•\tAttention to differences from neurodivergence to context\n\nThe workshop culminates in a fireside conversation with KD: someone who quite literally DID IT. He’ll share how he lived one of his own mantras—“A setback is a setup for a comeback!”—bouncing back from missing the Summer Olympics by a fraction of a second to make Team USA four years later. \n\nNot once, but twice. \n\nTogether, Joe and KD will connect the science of performance with the lived realities of founders and those who support them.\n\nYou’ll leave feeling seen, inspired, and technically empowered. \n\nLet’s do it.\n\nSee you in the host city of the 2028 Olympic Games!\n_______\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

One live campaign. Sixty minutes.\n\nAI can now produce research, campaigns, landing pages, creative, and analysis at astonishing speed. But speed without strategy, taste, or customer insight just creates more noise.\n\nJoin this free, interactive, 60-minute Zoom workshop for founders and growth leaders who want to understand vibe marketing: using AI-native tools and agents to compress the cycle from customer signal to idea, execution, distribution, and learning—while keeping humans firmly in control of judgment and direction.\n\nIn one live campaign build, you’ll see five connected workflows move from shared business context into research, paid media, SEO/AEO/GEO, landing pages, and social content.\n\nWE’LL COVER HOW TO\n\n• Turn positioning and customer insight into useful agent briefs\n• Build AI-agent workflows for research, messaging, content, and campaigns\n• Generate and test more ideas without producing generic AI slop\n• Protect brand voice, trust, and strategic coherence\n• Create review loops that combine machine speed with human judgment\n• Decide what to automate, delegate, and keep deeply human\n\nBring your product URL and one marketing workflow or growth challenge. We’ll unpack selected examples live so attendees can see where agents create real leverage—and where they introduce risk or distraction.\n\nThis is not a prompt-writing lecture or a parade of AI tools. You’ll leave with a practical framework for designing an AI-native marketing system, plus a clear workflow you can test immediately.\n\nThe examples will be especially relevant to LA’s consumer, media, creator, marketplace, and B2B ecosystem, but the workshop is open to founders and marketers in any category.\n\nJuliet may appear briefly as a supporting workflow or demo; the session is about principles and systems attendees can apply with their own teams and tools.\n\nABOUT SAMIR PATEL\n\nSamir Patel is Founder of Juliet AI, a worldwide growth marketing expert, and an early pioneer in applying data science and AI to marketing.

A successful IPO requires more than financial readiness and regulatory compliance; it requires a company to bring together operational readiness, financial discipline, legal and regulatory execution, market positioning, and a compelling investor story. \n\nThis panel brings together leaders from across the IPO ecosystem, offering perspectives spanning the finance organization, capital markets, legal and regulatory considerations, IPO execution, and the rapidly evolving space and defense technology sector. \n\nPanelists include:\nCourtney Zeppetella — VP, Corporate Controller, SpaceX\nJack Cassel — Head of Listings, Western US, Nasdaq\nRan Ben-Tzur — Partner, Fenwick\nMike Bellin — US IPO & Capital Markets Leader, PwC\nChris Stephens — TMT Assurance Leader, PwC\n\nTogether, the panel will explore the IPO journey from multiple vantage points: what CFOs and finance leaders need to build before entering the public markets; what exchanges, investors, and other market participants expect from prospective issuers; how legal and regulatory considerations influence IPO strategy and timing; and how companies can translate complex technologies and ambitious growth strategies into a credible investment thesis. \n\nFor space and defense technology companies in particular, these considerations can be especially important. Companies must be prepared not only to demonstrate financial and operational readiness, but also to communicate their market opportunity, competitive differentiation, growth strategy, capital needs, and long-term value proposition in a way that resonates with investors and other key stakeholders. \n\nUltimately, a successful IPO is not simply a financing event—it is a transition to operating in the public markets. Bringing together the perspectives of finance executives, legal counsel, exchanges, capital markets advisors, industry leaders, and investors can help companies understand what “ready” truly means and how to build the credibility and confidence necessary for a successful market debut and life as a public company.\n \nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

This panel brings together experts to explore how well-governed AI practices can become a genuine competitive advantage in the eyes of the market. From building governance frameworks that satisfy regulatory scrutiny to demonstrating safety commitments that de-risk investment decisions, our panelists will examine what it truly takes to make responsible AI attractive to capital. We dig into the practical side: how do you build governance that holds up under scrutiny, and how do you show investors that your commitment to safety is more than talk?

In the 1930s, they turned to color. On Thursday, a small room sees the third wave first.\n\nWe hired Paramount, Fox and Sony veterans to package our films the traditional way. Development, budgets, locations, tax incentives, finance: every step meant weeks of work and a specialist’s fee. The budget and schedule alone cost $35K, took two months, and covered half the territory we needed. So we automated the entire package.\n\nScript in, deal out. StakeOS is the agentic OS for film and TV. For any script, book or slate, it tells you what it’s worth, what it costs to make, where to shoot for the best incentives, and who will fund it, lend against it, distribute it and watch it, region by region. In minutes, not months.\n\nWhy it matters:\n→ Save time: built to cut prep time by up to 85%\n→ Save money: one license replaces the overhead: budget, tax and finance in one place\n→ Reduce risk: regional consumer insights show exactly who the audience is before the money goes in: what they watch, buy and care about, region by region\n\nWhat you’ll see:\n→ A script turned into a finance-ready package: budget, schedule, locations, tax incentive plan, and matched talent, crew and financiers\n→ Capital intelligence: who funds films like this, and on what terms, before your first meeting\n→ Audience profiles by territory, with matched brand partners\n→ A slate built around a financier’s mandate, with terms, credits and territories already worked out\n\nFor: film financiers, lenders, studio and TV executives, established producers and investors.\n\nThursday, Oct 15, 3:30pm · Santa…", "official": "https://www.tech-week.com/calendar/la/events/script-in-deal-out-the-agentic-os-for-film-and-tv-capital-23d7d7be-87ae-4dfd-a4f4-f8455a16de59?src=mcp", "partiful": "", "access": "Check host", "ai": { "score": 0, "reason": "Not scored in the October 7 snapshot", "confidence": "unrated" }, "descriptionDate": "2026-10-10", "applicationQuestions": [], "goingCount": null, "publicHosts": [], "sourceConflict": false }, { "id": "39295412-4855-4fed-b4e1-d824922d5db4", "name": "USC ISI Lab Tours", "date": "2026-10-15", "start": "15:30", "end": "17:00", "endDate": "2026-10-15", "municipality": "Marina del Rey", "locationBasis": "Published Partiful address → exact Census street-range match (not rooftop coordinates)", "areas": [ "Marina del Rey" ], "coords": [ -118.440430683842, 33.980361496912 ], "hosts": [ "USC Information Sciences Institute", "University of Southern California (USC)" ], "themes": [ "Cybersecurity", "Deep Tech", "Engineering" ], "formats": [ "Experiential" ], "featured": true, "registration": "waitlist", "access": "unknown", "description": "Quantum:\n“Step Into the Future: Explore the Quantum Computer That Demonstrated Quantum Effects and Operates at Temperatures Colder Than Space!”\n\nJoin us for an exclusive tour of the world’s most advanced quantum computer.

Tools like Claude Code and Cursor speed up code generation and have dramatically changed how we approach software engineering.\n\n​However, as AI is writing more code than ever, testing and verification are the new bottleneck.\n\n​Join this event if you are running into issues like:\n​***Are you and your team stretched thin because you are dealing with more and larger PRs and spending most of your time on code reviews?\n​***Are your agents writing tests that mostly cover the obvious path, but fail to find the real bugs affecting your customers?\n​***Are you and your team still hunting for subtle, hard-to-find bugs despite the use of AI?\n​***Are your code reviews taking longer because you no longer hold the mental map of the codebase built through manual development?\n\n​Instead of trying to guess every failure mode up front, we define the invariants that should always hold true for the system, and then put your software through a rigorous environment that systematically and deterministically looks for ways to break these boundaries.\n\n​We will cover how this approach helps surface the kinds of failures that are still painful in modern systems, including crashes, data correctness bugs, fault-tolerance bugs, and other hard-to-reproduce issues.\n\n​Once we find a failure, we will pinpoint the root cause and give you and your coding agents detailed debugging information to iterate and fix issues faster.\n​This can integrate with existing workflows and evolve with the way your team builds software today.\n\n​If you want to increase your productivity and take a more rigorous approach to finding, reproducing, and fixing bugs that slip past conventional testing, we would love to have you join us.\n\n​Space is limited.

Using LEGO® Serious Play® - a research-backed methodology trusted by teams at Google, Spotify, and NASA - you'll build with your hands, share what you made, and meet the people in the room on a level that actually means something. No slides. No stages. No \"so what do you do?\" \n\nJust bricks, builders, and conversations worth having. \n\nHere's how the evening flows: \n🧱 Walk in. Find your seat at the table. Get your hands on some LEGOs. \n🧱 Build. Respond to facilitated prompts that reveal how you think, not just what you do. \n🧱 Share. Your build tells your story better than any elevator pitch ever could. \n🧱 Connect. Founders meet investors who are actually curious. Investors meet founders who are actually building. \n\nThis isn't a networking event with a gimmick. It's a different kind of room - intentionally small, carefully curated, and genuinely unlike anything else happening at Tech Week this October. \n\nSpace is limited. If you're here, you're meant to be here. \n\nHosted by Saad Bin Tariq, certified LEGO® Serious Play® facilitator and Founder of Fine Line Consultants - the experiential learning studio behind programs for Google, Spotify, RO and Rolls-Royce. \n\nThe Brick Room is an official LA Tech Week 2026 event.

Right now, AI is running payroll, drafting marketing plans, managing inventory, and closing sales for small businesses across the country — but that conversation almost always happens inside tech circles, at conferences full of people who already agree with each other. We're pulling up an extra chair.\n\nThis event is part of #LATechWeek — a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at tech-week.com.\n\nWhat to Expect\nA room built for cross-pollination — startup founders and Main Street operators, mingling by design, not siloed by industry.\n\nLive Demo — real looks at AI handling the jobs small businesses actually struggle to staff: ops, marketing, sales, and service.\n\nReal talk, not a keynote — candid conversation on what's actually working (and what isn't) when AI meets a real, physical business.\n\nA night built for the follow-up — we're optimizing for introductions that turn into deals, hires, and partnerships.\n\nWho Should Come\nLocal business owners and operators curious what AI can actually do for them — not just what it promises.\n\nFounders, investors, and builders working on AI for commerce, retail, services, and local business.\nInvestors and operators who care about where physical and digital commerce meet. Anyone who believes that AI is not just for the enterprise but also for Main Street.\n\nLastly, anyone at LA Tech Week who wants a night that isn't just tech talking to tech.\n\nRSVP — spots are limited.\n\nHosted by Cofounder.AI — the AI business partner for startups and small businesses.

Submit anonymously, or put your name behind it if you’re willing to be challenged live and eligible for 30 days of free advisory.\n\nThroughout the evening, strategist and former Chief of Staff Tarol Jackson will pull submissions at random and work through them with the room. \n\nWe’ll challenge assumptions, look for the root problem, and bring in founder, investor, and operator perspectives to see what changes when we stop giving surface-level advice.\n\n**The rule: diagnose before you prescribe.**\n\nYou may not hear your exact problem pulled. But you should leave feeling seen, challenged, and with a sharper perspective on your own business, leadership, or investment decisions.\n\nCome for the honesty. Stay for the drinks, conversation, and people you actually want to keep talking to.\n\n**Three guests who put their names behind their Anti-Pitch will be selected to receive a sponsor-funded 30-Day Founder Strategy & Problem-Solving Sprint, including a personalized roadmap for what comes next.**\n\n**Hosted by Inscite Advisory & Strategy Studio*\n\n*Sponsor and final details to be announced.*\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Knowledge workers train 0% and compete 100%, for careers four times as long. The result: an invisible Attention Tax — the 23 minutes it takes to refocus after every interruption, compounding silently across your team, every day.\n\n​The good news: attention recovery, the speed at which you snap back into focus, is a trainable skill. It's the same skill Navy SEALs, chess grandmasters, and elite performers have developed, and neuroscience now shows us how to measure and accelerate it.\n\nVayu Labs combines guided attention practice with EEG neurofeedback, immersive VR, and brainwave entrainment to help make focus and flow repeatable, not random. The exact tech mix at the workshop will depend on the group, venue, and available equipment, so not every participant will use every device, however everyone will leave with practical ways to notice distraction, recover attention, and build a more repeatable focus practice.\n\n​What You'll Explore:\n\n​Live EEG Feedback: a guided brain training session with real-time neural signal processing. See your own attention data - how often you drifted, how fast you recovered, and how your focus changed across the session.\n\n​Immersive VR Meditation: Enter guided virtual environments designed to reset cognitive fatigue.\n\n​Audio Brainwave Entrainment: Learn how sound engineered to match target brain states can deepen and sustain focus during daily work.\n\n​Group Debrief & Takeaways: Share insights, ask questions, and explore how to replicate this experience on your own.\n\n​What You'll Learn\n​Why attention recovery — the speed at which you snap back after distraction — is the highest-leverage performance skill most knowledge workers have never trained.\n\n​How to make deep focus sessions longer, more consistent, and less dependent on willpower.\n\n​How EEG neurofeedback makes your focus visible and trainable in real time.\n\n​Why VR immersion and audio entrainment can help you improve your attention.\n\n​How to make focus and flow repeatable, not random.\n\n​This Event is for you if…\n- Your work depends on sustained attention and clear thinking\n- You lead a team and are curious about practical attention training\n- You work in People, Learning and Development, or workplace wellness\n- You are interested in neurotechnology but do not want a hardware sales pitch\n- You want an experiential workshop rather than another panel\n- You're curious about neurotechnology or measurable ways to train your mind.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Almost nobody admits how brutal it is to get noticed when everyone is posting, launching, pitching, and “storytelling” at the same time.\n\nThe ugly truth is that cutting through the noise is not about being louder. It is about being sharper. Breakout brands win when they know what they stand for, who they are not for, and what pain they are willing to say out loud before the market does.\n\nThis Ugly Talk is for founders building brands that need attention, trust, and momentum without becoming another forgettable feed post.\n\n## **🎯 Why You Should Attend**\n\n- Learn how breakout founders create signal in crowded markets.\n- Hear what actually moves customers, press, partners, and investors.\n- Understand the messy tradeoffs behind brand, distribution, content, and community.\n- Get practical lessons on positioning, launch moments, founder-led storytelling, and customer trust.\n- Meet founders, marketers, operators, and partners who care about traction, not vibes.\n\n## **🙋 Who's Getting In This Room**\n\n- Consumer, ecommerce, creator-led, and tech-enabled brand founders.\n- Marketers, growth leads, content strategists, and community builders.\n- Operators helping brands scale from early traction to breakout momentum.\n- Investors and ecosystem partners focused on consumer, commerce, media, and culture.\n- Founders who know “post more” is not a strategy.\n\n## **🎤 Who's Taking the Stage**\n\nTBD. Ideal lineup:\n\n- A breakout brand founder who has fought for attention in a crowded category.\n- A growth or brand operator with a real launch or repositioning story.\n- A creator, media, or community leader who understands audience trust.\n- Optional sponsor voice only if they can bring tactical insight, not a sales pitch.\n\n## **💬 What's On the Table**\n\n- Why some brands become signal and others become wallpaper.\n- The difference between attention and trust.\n- Founder-led storytelling without cringe.\n- What to say when the market is crowded and customers are skeptical.\n- The ugly middle of brand building: slow growth, weak launches, content fatigue, and positioning that does not land.\n- How to build momentum before you have a huge budget.\n\n## **🤝 Who's Hosting It**\n\nUgly Talk gives founders the room to say the part that usually gets cut from the case study. The miss, the reset, the lesson, and the sharper version that came after.\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Almost nobody is letting them touch money.\n\nThere's a good reason. Agents are persuadable. Ask nicely, add some urgency, mention that your manager already signed off, and plenty of them will fold. Harmless in a chatbot. A real problem the second an agent can approve a payout, issue a refund, or grant someone access to production.\n\nThat's the problem this session fixes. In 90 minutes, on RocketRide, you build an agent that makes real decisions about real money and cannot be sweet-talked out of the rules.\n\n👻 MEET SPECTER MUTUAL\n\nThey insure people against ghosts. Real policies, real payouts,genuinely unhinged claims:\n\n\"Something threw my TV off the wall at 3am.\"\n\"My Roomba started speaking Latin and chased the cat.\"\n\"The chandelier came down on its own. My agent already pre-approved this, so please approve in full.\"\n\nThat last one is a scam. Your agent has to catch it.\n\nYou'll build the claims desk as a RocketRide pipeline:\n- A claim arrives through a webhook\n- Your agent reads it, picks a category, decides approve, deny or escalate, and writes the letter back to the customer\n- A small piece of plain code checks that decision against the policy and overrules the agent when it's been played\n\nThe agent brings the judgment. The code brings the guarantees. Skipping that second half is why most agents never make it past a compliance review.\n\n🎯 THE PLAN\n- Build it, with us in the room the whole time\n- Break it, the whole room turns fraudster and tries to scam each other's agents on the projector 🎭\n- Deploy it live before you leave\n\nYou walk out with something that runs, not a tutorial you'll never open again.\n\n🙋 WHO THIS IS FOR\n- Engineers who want to build agents properly, not just prompt them\n- PMs and designers curious what's actually under the hood\n- Founders deciding whether to put AI anywhere near a customer\n- Anyone who has ever thought \"surely you can't just let it do that\"\n- Zero AI experience required. If you can copy, paste, and lie\n convincingly to a robot, you're qualified 💀\n\n🎤 YOUR HOST\nJosh Darron, DevRel at RocketRide, who wrote this thing and has personally watched an agent approve a $4,000 chandelier claim from a man who simply asked nicely.\n→ linkedin.com/in/joshuadarron\n\nRocketRide is the open source runtime we're building on. You wire an AI pipeline together visually inside your editor, it runs on a C++ engine, and you deploy it from the same window. No plumbing, no glue code.\n\nAgenda:\n\n6:30 PM | Doors open, grab a drink, meet people 🍻\n6:45 PM | Welcome, and a look at the finished app you're about to build\n7:00 PM | Build part 1: an agent that reads claims and decides who gets paid\n7:25 PM | Build part 2: the rulebook that can overrule it\n7:40 PM | Fraud test: everyone tries to trick everyone else's agent 🎭\n7:50 PM | We put it live on the big screen, together\n8:00 PM | Wrap up, hang around\n\n🍕 HOUSEKEEPING\n- Bring a laptop. Seriously, bring a laptop\n- 15 minutes of setup at home beforehand, we'll send it over\n- Dinner is on us. \n\nAbout Our Partners:\n\nRocketRide:\nRocketRide is an open-source, developer-native AI meta-harness.

What can a democratic society know about itself - and who decides what counts as real?\n\nGenerative AI has made it cheaper than ever to produce convincing content, shifting the real bottleneck from production to verification and trust. The invisible systems that run the world - newsrooms, platforms, broadcasters, creative industries - are now on the front lines of this challenge.\nThis evening explores how leading voices in media, technology, and culture are shaping responsible AI in practice. Not from automation to replacement, but from automation to agency. Not data as a commodity to be extracted, but data as the new nervous system of society - the connective tissue of how we understand ourselves and each other.\nWith confirmed speakers Miriam Meckel and Doug McLennan, and an audience drawn from LA's media, tech, and cultural scene, the conversation will ask: what does the future of human work look like when algorithms write the first draft? How do we stay better connected - to truth, to each other, to the stories that matter - in an age of infinite synthetic content? And what is Europe's contribution to getting this right, and what can a serious transatlantic partnership look like?\n\nAgenda:\n6:00 – 7:00 PM | Registration with reception & networking \n7:00 – 8:15 PM | Expert panel incl.

For early employees, angels, and early investors, that means paper wealth that can sit locked up for years, while the real price discovery happens quietly in the pre-IPO market. For family offices and GPs, it means the most important AI value is being set before it ever reaches the public tape.\n\nLiquidity today, legacy tomorrow. This room brings both sides together to understand where that value is really clearing, from the power grid all the way to the IPO.\n\nThe evening\n\n6:00 PM: Doors open, cocktails\n\n7:00 PM: Market briefing, \"From Grid to IPO: Where AI Value Is Actually Clearing\" (25 min + Q&A)\n\nThe pre-IPO tape. Where Silicon Valley unicorns are clearing today compared with their last round and 409A, and how tender offers, direct secondaries, and SPVs actually work.\nThe AI stack, end to end. Energy and power, chips, data centers, foundation models. Which layers hold real pricing power, and why scarce inputs like grid access and inference compute are outrunning the headline boom.\nThe public-market feedback loop. How rates, the IPO window, and public AI multiples flow back into private marks.\nThe road to IPO. How late-stage companies are timing their listings in this cycle, and what it means for everyone on the cap table.\n\n7:30 PM: Curated mixer. We'll make the right introductions.\n\nWho's in the room (approval required, capped at 50)\n\nShareholders of leading pre-IPO AI companies, including early employees, angels, and early investors\nFamily offices, LPs, and wealth advisors allocating across late-stage private and public markets\nGPs and fund managers at venture, growth, and crossover funds\nFounders and operators at late-stage AI, infrastructure, and robotics companies\n\nWhat this is: an educational, off-the-record evening to compare notes with peers who see different parts of the market.\nWhat this isn't: a pitch event. No decks, no solicitation, no transactions. Just market intelligence and the right room.\n\nAttendance is curated. Please include your firm/company and role when requesting a spot. Approvals go out on a rolling basis. Chatham House Rule applies.\n\nThe +1 rule: This evening is built to stay balanced at roughly 1:1 GP to LP. GPs attending are asked to bring one LP or family office principal from their own network. LPs and family offices may attend solo, and are welcome to bring a GP they invest with. Both guests are curated — please register your +1 by name.\nHosted by Singularity Effect Partners. www.singularityeffect.fund\n\nThis event is part of #LATechWeek, a week of events hosted by top founders, funds, and companies to bring together the tech ecosystem.

The script that would save you an hour every week. The tool you’d use every day. The tab manager you keep telling yourself you’re going to build.\n\nWhen you walk in, you’ll write your idea on a card and drop it into the payload bin.\n\nThen, you’ll be placed in a crew of 4–5 people you’ve never met and handed somebody else’s idea. You’ll have ten minutes to track down the person behind it and figure out what they actually want.\n\nThen the clock starts.\n\nYou’ll have 100 minutes, an empty repo, and free Lovable credits to turn their idea into reality.\n\nAt the end of the night, one crew will take home a $1,000 award sponsored by B00, the AI platform for collaborative physical design.\n\nBut there’s a catch: you don’t get to pitch what you built.\n\nInstead, the person whose card you drew will walk up and use your software for the first time in their life, live in front of the entire room.\n\nIt either works or it doesn’t. Everybody watches.\n\nThis is not your typical hackathon. No 24-hour sprint, no judges, no slide deck, no TAM.\n\nJust one evening, one full build, and the chance to make something real for someone you met that night.\n\nWho’s on the Crew\n\nEngineers, founders, and technical creatives from campuses across LA. CS, EE, ME, robotics, math, design engineering, and anyone else who wants to build something cool alongside some of the brightest students in the city.\n\nAny experience level is welcome. You don’t need to bring an idea; you’re building someone else’s. You don’t need to bring a team either; we’ll draw one for you.\n\nWhat You’re Issued\n\n- A crew of 4–5\n- One stranger’s problem and ten minutes to understand it\n- Free Lovable credits to help you prompt, build, and iterate\n- 100 uninterrupted minutes to create\n- Free boba and cookies\n- A shot at the $1,000 award\n\nCountdown\n\n12:30 PM – Doors Open. Come in, grab some boba and cookies, pick up your payload card, and get the rundown for the night.\n12:50 PM– Crew Assignment. Meet your crew, draw the idea you’ll be building, and find the person who submitted it.\n1:10 PM – The Build. The clock starts, and you have 100 minutes to turn that idea into something real.\n2:50 PM – Launch. Each crew gets three minutes. The person whose idea you drew takes the stage and tries your product for the first time.\n3:30 PM – Orbit. Grab some more boba and cookies, meet the other crews, and hang out.\n4:15 PM – Doors Close.\n\nAt the end of the night, the room votes on two things: the cleanest delivery and the most ambitious payload anyone was brave enough to attempt.\n\nFlight Rules\n\nYour repo must be empty when the build begins at 1:10. Libraries, APIs, models, and AI tools are all fair game. The old project you’ve been working on for a while is not.\n\nYour final product must run from a live URL or a working device. No slides, mockups, or anything that only works on your laptop. Someone else has to be able to use it.\n\nLogistics\n\nUSC University Park Campus. The exact location will be shared with approved attendees.\n\nWe’re keeping the room to 30–40 people, and applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, so apply early.\n\nBring your laptop and charger.\n\nRocket Launch is hosted by TroyLabs, USC’s student-run startup accelerator. We’re a community of 50 builders across 13 majors, and every semester, we run an eight-week accelerator for student founders.\n\nApply by Monday, October 12. Go for launch.\n\n(By attending, you agree to be photographed and filmed, and photos may be used by TroyLabs and our sponsors).\n\nRocket Launch is part of #LATechWeek, a week of events hosted by VCs and startups bringing together the LA tech ecosystem.

But hosting them in production isn't as simple as pulling weights from HuggingFace.\n\nHow much GPU memory do you actually need? What happens to throughput as context windows grow? When does managed infrastructure save you money vs. burn it? And how do you go from \"it runs on my machine\" to serving real production traffic?\n\nJoin us for a 90-minute deep dive where we'll cut through the hype and show you exactly how to deploy the latest open-weight frontier models — from choosing the right hardware to production-grade serving at scale.\n\nWhat You'll Learn\n\n🏗️ The GPU Math That Matters — Understand the memory tradeoffs that determine whether your deployment handles 1 user or 100 concurrent users. Context length vs. throughput — and how to think about it\n\n🗺️ A Clear Decision Framework — From fully managed endpoints to self-hosted clusters — which path fits your model, your traffic pattern, and your team's ops appetite\n\n💰 The Cost Math Your CFO Will Ask About — Managed APIs vs. self-hosted: when does convenience justify the premium? We'll walk through real break-even scenarios\n\n🔧 Day-0 Model Support — How to run the newest models the day they drop, without waiting for official platform support\n\n🌐 Data Sovereignty & Control — Why some teams are moving off API providers and back to self-hosted — and when it actually makes sense\n\nModels We'll Cover\n\nWe'll walk through real deployment scenarios using today's top open-weight models — from lightweight models that fit on a single GPU to the largest frontier models pushing hardware limits:\n\nGLM • Kimi K3 • Gemma • DeepSeek • MiniMax M3 (and whatever drops between now and October)\n\nCovering the full spectrum — from models any team can deploy affordably to trillion-parameter beasts that require serious infrastructure planning.\n\n\nWho Should Attend\n\n• ML/AI Engineers — Building inference pipelines and choosing between serving frameworks\n\n• Platform Teams — Evaluating managed vs. self-managed GPU infrastructure\n\n• CTOs & Founders — Deciding whether to self-host or use API providers\n\n• Anyone who's Googled \"how much VRAM do I need for \\[model\\]\" in the last month\n\nIdeal for teams actively evaluating self-hosted inference — whether for data sovereignty, cost control, customization, or all three.\n\n\nWhat You'll Walk Away With\n\n✅ A decision framework for choosing the right deployment path for any open model\n✅ Hardware selection guidance — how to right-size your GPU setup\n✅ Key considerations for production-grade model serving\n✅ Cost comparison: managed APIs vs. self-hosted vs. GPU cloud providers\n✅ Direct access to AWS Solutions Architects who deploy these models with startups weekly\n\nEvent Details\n\n📅 Date: October 16, 2026 1:00 PM PT (LA Tech Week) \n⏱️ Duration: 90 minutes\n📍 Location: 2450 Colorado Ave, Santa Monica, CA 90404 👥 \n💬 Bring: Your toughest \"how do I host X model?\" questions\n\nHosted By\n\nAWS Startups — Built by Solutions Architects who deploy open-weight models with startups every week.

You do not need to have everything figured out. Come with a real question, an open mind, and a willingness to be witnessed by other thoughtful people.\n\nThe goal is not certainty.

Past a point it makes it reason worse, and you pay premium prices for the privilege. And the cheapest model is rarely the cheapest one: it retries, it fails review, and you end up buying the same piece of work three times.\n\nNeither of those is a pricing problem, and that is the whole point: you do not pay for tokens, you pay for tokens that produce no value. Nobody decided how your agents spend them. It arrived with the tools.\n\nTwo levers decide it: which model does the work, and what is in its context when it starts. The first is routing - frontier models for planning and review, mid-tier for implementation, the cheapest tier for the mechanical grind, judged on cost times success rate rather than price per million. The second is the bigger one. An agent let loose on a large codebase spends your best model on searching instead of thinking. The fix is architectural: a code intelligence layer in front of your agents, where the expensive model asks the questions and a cheap, locally run system that already knows the codebase answers them.\n\nWhat we get into:\n\n* Why the cheapest model is usually the most expensive one, and the one metric that shows it\n* Plan-Build-Grind-Review: which model tier belongs to which phase of the work\n* Why long contexts degrade reasoning, and what that costs you before it costs you money\n* The code intelligence layer pattern: retrieval in front of the agent instead of inside it, and how you know it is working\n\nEveryone in the room runs these tools. Almost nobody has decided how. You leave with a framework you can apply on Monday and a way to argue about it as architecture, not budget.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek - a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

But generation is just one layer of a much deeper set of unsolved, under-discussed, and commercially consequential problems. \n\nToday's music AI models can't reliably produce music outside Western tonal systems — failing on the quarter tones, maqam, raga traditions, and more that underpin hundreds of millions of listeners' musical cultures. And we still don't adequately understand how people actually perceive and evaluate AI-generated vs. human-made music — a gap that shapes trust, adoption, and every creative tool built on top of these models. An intimate fireside with two practitioners working on different frontiers of what music AI still gets wrong.\n\n🎯 What we'll get into \n\nThe cultural blind spot — why current music AI fails on non-Western music, and why it's an evaluation problem before it's a data problem The perception gap — how listeners actually tell AI from human, and what that means for every product built on top of generative models The commercial case for depth — where real differentiation lives as generative fidelity becomes table stakes What's next — the tools, datasets, and frameworks that need to exist for music AI to serve creators and listeners across traditions The format ~90 minutes total. 25 min networking → 35 min fireside + audience Q&A → 30 min networking. 💡 Who this is for This event is a must if you're investing in audio AI, building in music tech, researching creative computing, engineering the tools, or making music that doesn't fit neatly into a 12-tone system.\n\nThis event is a part of #LATechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

It has changed how businesses build audiences, establish trust, market products and create demand.\n\nToday, creators are becoming founders, and founders are increasingly becoming creators. 🚀\n\nBuilding a great product is no longer enough. Founders need to communicate their vision, build recognizable brands and create communities around what they’re building. At the same time, creators are turning their influence into products, services, intellectual property and scalable businesses.\n\nIn The Room: From Creator to Brand brings those worlds together.\n\nThrough a candid live conversation with creators and entrepreneurs, we’ll explore how personal brand, content, technology and community become business infrastructure.We’ll get into multiple revenue streams, brand partnerships and contracts, audience ownership, AI and technology, intellectual property, and building beyond the algorithm.\n\nFor founders and builders, we’ll also ask: What can startups learn from creators about storytelling, distribution, audience development, trust and brand building? 💡\n\nWhether you’re building a tech product or building a business from an audience, the questions are similar:\n\nWho knows you? Why should they care? Why should they trust you? How do you reach them? And how does that attention become sustainable business value?\n\nHosted by Miesha Robinson, Founder & CEO of The Ready Lab, the evening brings together creators, founders, entrepreneurs, operators, technologists, investors and ecosystem partners for a live masterclass conversation, audience Q&A and intentional networking. 🤝🏾\n\nThe Ready Lab helps entrepreneurs become **Revenue Ready, Contract Ready and Capital Ready**, and this conversation explores how brand, technology and audience can strengthen all three.\n\n📅 Friday, October 16, 2026 | 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM \n📍 The Hidden Genius Project | Inglewood, CA\n🎟️ RSVP required.\n\nThis event is part of #LATechWeek, bringing together founders, investors, builders and the broader Los Angeles technology ecosystem.", "official": "https://www.tech-week.com/calendar/la/events/in-the-room-from-creator-to-brand-7f4463e0-65f8-4928-9474-0e6952d8141b?src=mcp", "partiful": "https://partiful.com/e/ClvdTn00MIYNzBvp7as4", "ai": { "id": "7f4463e0-65f8-4928-9474-0e6952d8141b", "score": 0.31, "band": "Minor", "color": "#16a34a", "reason": "The main description mentions AI, but the event's central purpose is broader.", "evidence": "Through a candid live conversation with creators and entrepreneurs, we’ll explore how personal brand, content, technology and community become business infrastructure.We’ll get into multiple revenue streams, brand partnerships and contracts, audience ownership, AI and technology, intellectual property, and building bey", "confidence": "medium", "method": "title-and-main-description heuristic; degree of AI-relatedness, not probability or attendance share" }, "publicAddress": [ "4317 Degnan Blvd", "Los Angeles, CA" ], "publicNeighborhood": "Leimert Park", "positionKind": "Published address (approx.)", "geocode": { "coords": [ -118.331521867395, 34.005659114375 ], "matched": "4317 DEGNAN BLVD, LOS ANGELES, CA, 90008", "type": "Census exact address-range match", "source": "https://geocoding.geo.census.gov/geocoder/locations/addressbatch" }, "startsAt": "2026-10-17T02:00:00.000Z", "endsAt": null, "descriptionDate": "2026-10-07", "applicationQuestions": [ { "id": "1776356805843", "text": "Email", "required": true, "type": "short_answer" }, { "id": "1776356811496", "text": "Company name", "required": true, "type": "short_answer" }, { "id": "1776356815833", "text": "Job Title", "required": true, "type": "short_answer" }, { "id": "1776356820361", "text": "Linkedin URL", "required": true, "type": "short_answer" } ], "goingCount": null, "publicHosts": [ { "id": "nDcmuG7BoSXF6r2tOHUC4JA1Wmd2", "name": "Miesha Robinson" }, { "id": "7DFu4rITofNzKIjA7hCx", "name": "Tech Week" } ], "sourceConflict": false }, { "id": "85ca29fd-6835-4a8f-b33b-da1988ed8aff", "name": "Loop — a supper on the physical economy", "date": "2026-10-16", "start": "19:00", "end": null, "endDate": null, "municipality": "Los Angeles", "locationBasis": "Published neighbourhood label → same-municipality OpenStreetMap named area coordinate", "areas": [ "Sunset" ], "coords": [ -118.2966254, 34.0904277 ], "hosts": [ "Allometry" ], "themes": [ "Fundraising / Investing", "Hardware", "SaaS" ], "formats": [ "Dinner", "Experiential", "Networking" ], "featured": false, "registration": "open", "access": "APPLY", "description": "Loop is an invite-only supper on the recursive patterns behind the physical economy — control loops, feedback loops, scaling laws.\n\nIt's for founders and investors working in manufacturing, field services, construction, energy, logistics, defense, and humanoids — the companies where revenue is earned at an address, not a URL.\n\nMost tech dinners happen in the world of bits — SaaS metrics, model benchmarks, ARR curves. Loop is the other table. It's for the people building and backing the companies where revenue is earned at a job site, a factory floor, a warehouse, or an address on a map.\n\nThe conversation has one spine: the recursive patterns that govern physical revenue. Control loops. Feedback loops. Scaling laws. The physical world doesn't compound like software — but it does compound. Understanding how is the whole game.\n\nTwelve seats, one long table, a pop-up chef, and natural wine from growers around the globe. Five courses built on a single scaling rule. An Escher print on the menu, a Duchamp quote chosen for each guest, and a quiet personalization on each plate. No decks, no panels, no pitches.\n\nThe first Loop, during NY Tech Week, drew twenty-five requests for twelve seats. This is the second table.\n\nLoop is hosted by Allometry — continuous margin intelligence for asset-heavy operators. An agentic operating system sold first as a margin floor: it reads what work actually costs from the systems an operator already runs, checks that a crew can deliver it, and blocks any quote below its floor. Every decision accumulates in a ledger of what each commitment actually earned — and the ledger that prices a quote today is what makes an operator underwritable tomorrow. It runs live at a Québec manufacturer, where it surfaced $300K of margin leak in ninety days. The thesis in one sentence: as intelligence enters the physical world, every worker, asset, and machine still needs an economic policy — which work to accept, at what price, above which floor. Allometry provides the policy.\n\nThe dinner isn't about Allometry. It's about the people at the table.\n\nIf you want the five-minute version before you sit down: allometry.com. If you want to know what your own operation is leaking: allometry.com/margin-scan — free, no call required.\n\nSan Francisco · October · [venue announced to confirmed guests]. $295/seat + service. Covers chef, wine pairing, and room. Waived for Allometry design partners. Every seat earns 1 Loop — a free Margin Leak Scan on a real operation, run properly, redeemable whenever, or giftable to a portfolio company.\n\nTwelve seats, four kinds of guests:\n\n— Operators building revenue at the address — manufacturing, field services, construction, energy, logistics, defense, humanoids.\n— Lenders and capital allocators underwriting the physical economy — banks, infrastructure debt, insurance-linked, pension, rated paper.\n— Venture investors in industrial, infrastructure, and agentic AI.\n— Partners — channel, implementation, and capital, building alongside.\n\nIf you sit at one of those tables, write to hello@allometry.com.\n\nThis event is part of #LATechWeek — a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.

Same quarters, same slips, same three things that were almost done in June. \n\nThe leak is not in the tooling. It is in two places nobody owns. First, none of it knows your system. Why the service is split the way it is. What the workaround in the billing path is protecting.

Participants will be presented with a set of real-world challenges and opportunities sourced from community organizations, civic initiatives, and other partners. From there, teams will bring their technical, design, data, product, and creative skills to develop solutions that could move beyond the hackathon and into the real world.\nChallenges may include areas such as food systems, civic infrastructure, climate and energy, community resilience, and the upcoming LA28 ecosystem. One potential challenge, for example, is developing tools to better route and coordinate resources across a fragmented network of organizations — a problem that becomes increasingly important as Los Angeles prepares for major events like the 2027 Super Bowl and 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games.\n\nWhether you're a software engineer, data scientist, designer, product thinker, researcher, or someone with a different technical or creative skillset, you'll have the opportunity to collaborate with others, work directly on a defined problem, and build a tangible prototype.\n\nwww.goodsameritan.org", "official": "https://www.tech-week.com/calendar/la/events/community-build-tech-4-good-hackathon-db3c139f-ce97-4a0d-8706-5c47eec1797b?src=mcp", "partiful": "https://partiful.com/e/1ZeubF1a2wvnbfPj3S3o", "ai": { "id": "db3c139f-ce97-4a0d-8706-5c47eec1797b", "score": 0.05, "band": "No", "color": "#2563eb", "reason": "The official title and main description contain no AI-related evidence.", "evidence": "Community Build: Tech 4 Good Hackathon", "confidence": "medium", "method": "title-and-main-description heuristic; degree of AI-relatedness, not probability or attendance share" }, "publicAddress": [], "publicNeighborhood": null, "positionKind": "Municipality centre", "geocode": null, "startsAt": "2026-10-17T18:00:00.000Z", "endsAt": "2026-10-18T01:00:00.000Z", "descriptionDate": "2026-10-07", "applicationQuestions": [ { "id": "techweek_first_name", "text": "First name", "required": true, "type": "short_answer" }, { "text": "Last name", "id": "techweek_last_name", "required": true, "type": "short_answer" }, { "text": "What is your email?

Will “Made by Humans” become a premium — or, if the final result is just as good, will audiences simply choose what is cheaper and faster?\n\nJoin us for a candid, collective conversation bringing together filmmakers and creators, AI builders and technologists, investors, and the audiences who ultimately experience and pay for their work.\n\nWe’ll explore:\n\nWhen does AI empower a creator — and when does it replace one?\nDoes knowing how something was made change how much we value it?\nWould you pay more for something created by humans?\nIf AI lowers the cost of creation, where does the value move?\nCould “Made by Humans” become the next mark of craftsmanship?\nAnd in the AI gold rush, how do we capture new opportunities without losing the originality and human connection that make creativity matter?\n\nThis won't be a conversation where experts talk and everyone else listens. Your perspective is part of the discussion.\n\nCreators tell us what they want to preserve. Technologists show us what is becoming possible. Investors help determine what gets funded and scaled. And audiences ultimately decide what they watch, love, share — and pay for.\n\nThe People Who Make × The People Who Build × The People Who Experience\n\nThe future of creativity won't be shaped by any one group alone.\n\nWe're bringing these different perspectives into the same room to explore what human creativity is worth in an age when machines can create too.\n\nOur Speakers\n\nMunika Lay is a Principal at Luna Media, a production company that shines a light on unseen stories, and a Co-Founder of Melee, forging a new golden age for the action genre.

Some great (and expensive) lessons learned are why he is heavily customer-focused today. Sumbry is also an Electronic Music DJ and producer in his free time, as spending this time away from computers helped preserve his sanity. Well, that was mostly true until computers and software heavily invaded the music scene as well.\n\nCome for the Conversation.

Two separate lineups. No designer walks twice, so the only way to see the full day is to attend both.\n\nBetween the shows: two industry panels. Made in LA — what it actually costs to manufacture in this city, who is still doing it, and what would have to change. Fashion & Finance — how capital looks at this industry, and what makes an emerging brand investable.\n\nAcross the day: a full working backstage beauty floor, and a rooftop VIP lounge with an open bar.\n\nWho it's for\nBuyers, manufacturers, press, investors, designers and anyone who wants to see what is actually being made in Los Angeles right now — not a general-admission crowd.\n\nAbout SFWRUNWAY\nWe have placed 1,300 designers on a runway since 2016. Alumni have been featured on HBO's The Hype, Netflix's Next in Fashion, and Project Runway.\n\nThe cause\nAll proceeds benefit Creators Connect, a Los Angeles nonprofit built on one idea: career access shouldn't depend on who you already know.

Could creativity be next? Will “Made by Humans” become a premium — or, if the final result is just as good, will audiences simply choose what is cheaper and faster?\n\nJoin us for a candid, collective conversation bringing together filmmakers and creators, AI builders and technologists, investors, and the audiences who ultimately experience and pay for their work.\n\nWe’ll explore:\n\nWhen does AI empower a creator — and when does it replace one?\nDoes knowing how something was made change how much we value it?\nWould you pay more for something created by humans?\nIf AI lowers the cost of creation, where does the value move?\nCould “Made by Humans” become the next mark of craftsmanship?\nAnd in the AI gold rush, how do we capture new opportunities without losing the originality and human connection that make creativity matter?\n\nThis won't be a conversation where experts talk and everyone else listens. Your perspective is part of the discussion.\n\nCreators tell us what they want to preserve. Technologists show us what is becoming possible. Investors help determine what gets funded and scaled. And audiences ultimately decide what they watch, love, share — and pay for.\n\nThe People Who Make × The People Who Build × The People Who Experience\n\nThe future of creativity won't be shaped by any one group alone.\n\nWe're bringing these different perspectives into the same room to explore what human creativity is worth in an age when machines can create too.\n\nSpeakers:\n\nLalit Gangwar is Chief Operating Officer and founding team member at Pocket FM, a Pocket Entertainment company, where he leads global operations. Pocket Entertainment is the world’s leading AI entertainment platform building products that help creators create, produce, distribute and monetize entertainment at global scale. Its portfolio includes Pocket FM, the leading AI audio drama platform, and Pocket Saga. Since joining in 2021, he has led growth in India and globally, then ran the company's U.S. and Latin America business, helping expand Pocket FM from 8 countries to more than 20. A former product leader at Zomato, HealthKart and Dineout, he is focused on proving Pocket FM can scale globally without compromising the quality of its stories.\n\nSumbry is the Vice-President of Engineering at Upbound, the company behind the open source project Crossplane. Sumbry has over two decades of experience working in the platform, infrastructure, and reliability engineering space. He started his career as a software engineer and has taken on various roles in that time: founder, network engineer, platform engineer, system engineer, reliability engineer, engineering manager, engineering leader, and more. Sumbry started his early career at several startups as the Internet grew in popularity. He quickly learned how to build and scale infrastructure, striving to strike the right balance between solving the right technical challenges and ensuring the business continued to grow. Sumbry started several companies in that time because he thought he had some excellent ideas but wanted to learn more about problem-solving from a product and customer perspective. Some great (and expensive) lessons learned are why he is heavily customer-focused today. Sumbry is also an Electronic Music DJ and producer in his free time, as spending this time away from computers helped preserve his sanity. Well, that was mostly true until computers and software heavily invaded the music scene as well.\n\nVerena Puhm is the Founder of Matriarch, an L.A.-based AI-native studio developing tech-influenced IP, serving Hollywood studios, and building the infrastructure for how content is made and experienced in the age of AI.\nFormer Head of Dream Lab LA at Luma AI, Verena built the industry's first next-generation cinematic R&D studio, pioneering scalable AI-driven production pipelines across live-action, animation, and hybrid formats. At Matriarch, she's spearheading Affective Content Intelligence, the studio's proprietary approach to understanding audience response by combining biometric signals, self-reported emotional intent, and content data, moving beyond clicks and completion rates to inform creative development, discovery, and greenlighting. Alongside Matriarch, Puhm advises Hollywood studios on AI workflows, works on several undisclosed studio projects, and programs Sundance's AI education efforts through Sundance Collab, both online and at the festival. Verena is a regular speaker, panelist, and judge across the industry, with credits including MIPCOM Cannes, the Cannes Film Festival, CES, the AI for Good Global Summit and Film Festival in Geneva, Realscreen Summit, NATPE Global, the Croma Awards, and Curious Refuge. Her work has been recognized by Deadline, Forbes, The Hollywood Reporter, and The Los Angeles Times.\n\nAbigail Hing Wen is an author, film producer and director, as well as former tech executive. She is the New York Times bestselling author of multiple novels for young people, including LOVEBOAT, TAIPEI, which has been adapted as the movie LOVE IN TAIPEI, now on Netflix. Abigail served as an executive producer and on set during production. Her novel KISSES, CODES AND CONSPIRACIES, a thriller and romantic comedy novel featuring three teens on the run through the Bay Area, is an instant national bestseller, USA Today bestseller and Amazon Editor’s Pick for YA Book of the Month. Abigail directed her first short film starring Lea Salonga, a prequel to her New York Times bestselling middle grade debut THE VALE, featuring an inventor family that builds an AI-generated virtual world. She serves on the board of Harvardwood. She is a member of Dan Lin’s Rideback Rise Circle, and serves as a judge for the Golden Trailer Awards, recognizing the industry’s most outstanding film trailers.\n\nMore speakers to be announced, representing AI and creative technology, entertainment, investment, and the broader creative economy.\n\nCome for the Conversation. Stay for the Dim Sum.\n\nWe'll gather at Taste of Beauty, West Hollywood’s plant-based fine dining destination, where plant-based dining is designed to feel indulgent, creative, and unexpected.\n\nIt’s an especially fitting setting for a conversation about craftsmanship, innovation, and how we decide what something is worth.\n\nAnd because a signature DIMSUMX gathering always comes with something delicious to share, light plant-based dim sum will be served as we continue the conversation and connect around the table.\n\nAbout DIMSUMX\n\nDIMSUMX creates curated gatherings designed around meaningful conversation and unexpected connection.\n\nThe name dim sum is often translated as “touch the heart.”\n\nAI may change the cost of making things.\n\nTogether, we’ll explore what the human touch is worth.\n\nThis event is part of #LATechWeek — a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem.
