About Event

Hosted by Forum Ventures & First Row Venture Partners
📍 Seattle Tech Week | 🥗 Private Lunch Gathering

AI is moving fast, and it’s only as strong as the infrastructure it runs on. Join us for a curated lunch bringing together the builders and backers of the AI infrastructure stack: the unsung enablers powering the next wave of agentic AI.

This event is an intimate gathering designed for early-stage founders building the rails that AI agents sit on, alongside investors focused on the tooling, platforms, and backend innovation that’s driving this category forward.

Expect meaningful conversations, shared insights, and new connections across the AI infra community. Whether you’re building distributed systems, LLM ops, data infrastructure, or developer platforms for AI, this lunch is for you.

🍴 Why Attend?

  • 🤝 Meet other founders and funders shaping the future of AI infrastructure

  • 🔍 Explore what’s working (and what’s not) at the infrastructure layer

  • 💡 Spark collaborations and unlock capital for your next phase

🎯 Who Should Attend

  • AI Infra Founders (e.g., LLMOps, vector DBs, orchestration tools, deployment infra)

  • Early-stage investors focused on AI and deep tech

  • Ecosystem Builders supporting the AI backend
