For engineers, the allure of AI often begins and ends with the "magic" of the build. However, as the market shifts from "shiny object" exuberance toward commoditized models, the true challenge emerges: Just because you built it, doesn't mean you have a company. This session strips away the curiosity of the "open-source project" and focuses on the grit required to build a defensible business. We will explore the critical phases of the AI startup lifecycle, from navigating the "one-year cliff" of early co-founder equity to the brutal reality of achieving product-market fit.

Join us to learn why the next stage of the AI revolution belongs not to the best prompters, but to the engineers who can bridge the gap between technical execution and business sustainability.
