Welcome to our special How Do You AI meetup edition of Founders, Funders, & Friends hosted by Studio Management, in partnership with Stanford Startups New York and Everywhere Ventures 🗽
Come learn, share and connect on all things AI with a curated group of our friends from Stanford Entrepreneurs and Everywhere Ventures. This is a special edition in which we are inviting alumni from MIT, Harvard in Tech, and others for a fun cross-pollination!
We promise this is different than any sort of startup meetup you've been to before – we've spent time curating a gathering format where genuine connections happen over great food, without the awkward bill-splitting of traditional group dinners.
Using Studio Management's custom AI software, we’ll group guests based on the relevant details you’ve shared in your profile such as interests and background. Each group consists of 6-8 people who share common ground but bring their own unique perspectives!
How it works:
Act 1 - 6:30-7:00: Check-in & Happy Hour
Meet your matched group and others on the second floor. If you get there early enough you can grab a drink from downstairs! :)
Act 2 - 7:00-8:00: Group Dinner at the market
You can pick from different vendors or everyone can get the same thing! Return to the second floor to eat with your group. Share in curated conversation with your group while everyone chooses their ideal meal.
Act 3 - 8:00-9:30: Return to the second floor to venture to Mr. Purple together!
We'll walk over to Mr. Purple together for the open mingling portion of the evening.
🚨 Super important!🚨 The matching doesn’t work unless you fill out your profile by MIDNIGHT on Tuesday, 11/18. Group cut offs happen at this time.
⏰ Please remember your RSVP is a commitment to show up and be part of someone else's circle. Make sure to get there by 7 so you can have a full experience with your group!
🥘 Lastly, this event is free, but you will have to purchase your own meal and beverages.
