About Event

Join us for an evening celebrating the ones building what’s next: out loud, in the open, and together.

Mic Drop: AI Builders Pitch & Pod Social is a gathering designed for AI founders to sharpen their pitches, connect with the community, share their insights, and create new collaborations.

​​Event Overview During the Night

  • 🎤 Flash Pitches (~30 mins starting at 6:30 pm): Get on the mic. Founders will practice sharp, rapid-fire AI pitches (~1 min) in front of a supportive crowd. It’s not about perfection—it’s about clarity, connection, and reps.

  • 🎙 Invite-Only: Live Recording of The AI CEO Podcast (all throughout the night) Upstairs at Legacy Sessions, Seema Alexander will host exclusive, short-form interviews with select AI founders. Street-style interviews will also happen on the main floor. Got a hot take? Come ready to drop it.

  • 🤝 Find Your People: The rest is open networking. Great food, great drinks (available to purchase at Legacy Hifi) and better convos. You’ll leave with at least one new collaborator, idea, insight or friendship—guaranteed.

​​Who It’s For

  • AI startup founders (early- and pre-seed welcome)

  • Aspiring entrepreneurs exploring the AI space

  • Investors and tech operators

  • Builders, researchers, and curious minds

Why Attend?

​Those who come will have the unique opportunity to connect with emerging AI startup founders and expand your professional network. Whether you're pitching, listening, or simply mingling, you'll leave with fresh perspectives and valuable connections.
