State of AI in Design Happy Hour

​Join Designer Fund and Foundation Capital during Config Week for a meetup with fellow designers on how AI is redefining workflows, tools, and creative practice.

​We’ve just wrapped The State of AI in Design - a new research report based on a survey of nearly 400 designers and interviews with leaders from Stripe, Anthropic, Notion, and Perplexity. Before the full report is released, we’re sharing our key findings with a select group of designers.

​In a fireside chat, Foundation Capital’s Steve Vassallo and Designer Fund’s Ben Blumenrose will unpack what we’ve learned - from how AI is reshaping design workflows to why startups are adopting it at twice the rate of established companies. They’ll also offer their perspectives as investors on where the biggest opportunities lie for designers (and founders) today.

​You’ll connect with peers who are navigating similar shifts, enjoy drinks and light bites, and leave with insights you can apply to your own work.

​Space is limited, so RSVP soon to join us!
