Join us for our first VIC event of 2025, where we're cutting through the noise to have real conversations about AI in practice. No snake oil, no wild predictions – just grounded insights from people actually building with and deploying AI technology today.

Whether you're a founder wondering how AI fits into your product roadmap, an operator trying to separate signal from noise, or simply curious about what's really working (and what isn't), this is your chance to connect with fellow builders and get the unvarnished truth.

What to expect:

Honest conversations about current AI practices and real-world applications
Networking with founders, operators, and investors from the Australian tech ecosystem
Good vibes, great company, and even better nibbles and drinks
Insights that go beyond the marketing fluff
(And yes if you got this far - this was mostly curated by AI)

Come for the insights, stay for the community. It's time we had a proper catch-up.
