What happens when frontier ideas meet people ready to build them?

Following a day of science, AI, and startup showcases at AIAS⁺ 2026, we’re opening the doors for an evening with the founders, researchers, builders, and curious minds turning ambitious ideas into something real.

Meet teams working across AI and science, discover what people are experimenting with and building now, and find the collaborators, perspectives, or unexpected conversations that could shape what comes next.

What to expect

- Meet the Startups — Connect with teams building at the frontier of AI, science, and emerging technology. - What’s Being Built — Hear quick introductions to new companies, projects, tools, and ideas. - Research × Building — Meet researchers and builders approaching the same problems from different sides. - Find Your Next Connection — Meet potential collaborators, founders, researchers, investors, and fellow builders. - Light Bites & Drinks — On us. No long pitches. No formal panels.

Just ambitious ideas, the people building around them, and plenty of room to meet, talk, and see what might happen next.

You don’t need an AIAS⁺ conference pass to join the evening.

Building something? Bring the idea.

Curious about what’s next? Come meet the people working on it.

Free to attend. RSVP required.
